On the morning of June 3, the Woodstock Institute is hosting "Beyond Foreclosures: The Impact of the Financial Crisis on the Wealth Gap and Economic Opportunity." The conference will discuss how the financial crisis has affected the access to financial services for the most vulnerable citizens. Topics include credit scoring, access to credit, access to banking, and bankruptcy filings (on which I am speaking). The conference will take place at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, and registration is required. More information can be found on the conference website.

One response to ““Beyond Foreclosure”–Conference in Chicago”
I just took a look at featured speaker roster, Professor, and while I realize that this is an academic gathering and in no way mean to single it out, given similar participation at various symposiums, conferences and congressional hearings, I still feel the need to ask whether anyone is ever going to allow even a few of the “most vulnerable citizens” to give first hand accounts of the effects of this financial “crisis” on their lives?
