ABOUT THE
ARKANSAS FINANCIAL EDUCATION COMMISSION

The Arkansas Financial Education Commission was established by Act 1025 of 2021 during the 93rd General Assembly. Sen. Missy Irvin and Rep. Bruce Cozart co-sponsored the legislation.

​

The Financial Education Commission was formed to help respond to our state’s need for – and access to –  free educational resources that will help Arkansans in all geographic areas and socioeconomic backgrounds achieve financial well-being.

 

The nine-person Commission operates under the authority of the Arkansas State Treasurer. Six members represent state financial or education agencies and three members represent the Arkansas public, private or nonprofit sector.
