Crazy Cash City Evaluation Report

2012

This report covers an innovative experiential learning approach to Native youth financial education.  In October 2012, First Nations piloted a financial simulation fair for Native high school students based on the Mad City Model that lets youth get a taste of the real world.  The students were given an opportunity to make a series of spending and saving choices based on their fictitious family profile that identified occupation, debt, and family member information.
