Good Evening all,
Here is the CFED website, which provides info and access to a number of their programs. I have worked with them on several projects, and found them to be knowledgeable, and flexible. Their resources are also good. Here is the link to their site. Browse the IDA section, but there is also some other interesting programs. http://www.cfed.org/home.m
I think that an IDA type program would be good for Young entrepreneurs, and for Vets. Young people could start a program while in high school (age 16) and by the time they graduate, could use the match for a votech type of program, or starting their own business, or for continuing their education. Vets could do the same thing.
I have a number of good training materials for the IDA program, and have seen its positive effect.
Let me know what you think.
Have a good night gary

Thanks for the post. Very informative material. I thought the SEED program was interesting, as well. How does this differ from the IDA concept?

Brandon,
The IDA is meant for any age group, including a youth component, but the SEED is targeted at just the younger youth group, teaching financial literacy from as young as elementary age, teaching and implementing savings based programs. For the WIRED initiative, SEED is probably outside the age parameters.
