My colleague, Lauren Stebbins, sent me this announcement about a webinar she is planning with our friends at NeighborWorks America. Use the RSVP image below to register for the January 17 event today!

Please join us from 1 -2 pm EST on January 17 for a discussion of the Borrow Less Tomorrow (BoLT) Program, a behavioral approach to helping low- and middle-income individuals and families pay down expensive debt. Using principles of behavioral economics, the BoLT Program helps consumers devise a repayment schedule and incorporates the use of peer support and reminders so that consumers both successfully pay down their debt and improve their credit scores. Developed by Innovations for Poverty Action (IPA), the BoLT Program has been implemented through several organizations including Encore Capital Group. Presenters will discuss the implementation and results of the program.

Presenters include:

• Jonathan Zinman, Associate Professor of Economics, Dartmouth College
• Christopher Trepel, Senior Vice President, Corporate Affairs and Chief Scientific Officer, Encore Capital Group
• Brian Enneking, Vice President, Consumer Marketing, Encore Capital Group

This webinar will be moderated by Genevieve Melford, Director of Research, CFED. Presentations will be followed by a Q&A session.
