The Federal Reserve Banks scattered around the United States all maintain a strong educational component as part of their outreach work within the communities they serve. This nice section of the Kansas City branch's site includes free economic and personal finance resources for educators, bankers, and consumers. The Resources area is a great place to start as it contains lesson plans that are appropriate for K-12 audiences. Moving on, the Consumer Education area includes resources on foreclosure trends, credit card protections, and helpful tips for shopping for a mortgage. Additionally, the site contains a place where visitors can sign up to receive updates on various branch activities and a link to the branch's RSS feed.
