The InvestNative Investor Education Project
First Nations Development Institute has published a guide to investing titled Building Native Communities: Investing for the Future. This workbook-- designed to teach the basics of investing -- was developed with guidance from an advisory group of Native financial experts. Investing for the Future provides an overview of basic investing concepts in an accessible, easy-to-use format, and is the latest addition to First Nations’ Building Native Communities curriculum series on financial education. The workbook’s interactive exercises and accessible style make it ideal for use in a classroom or educational workshop. Investment concepts are introduced though stories, exercises, and illustrations, allowing a reader to apply investment practices to their own life while thinking about investing for the future.

InvestNative is part of the ongoing efforts of First Nations Development Institute to recognize and develop the assets, talents, and abilities of Native people. This project is supported by the FINRA Investor Education Foundation. More information about this program is available at www.investnative.org.
