Welcome to the CRA Network of Wisconsin. The CRA Network of Wisconsin was formed in 2018 by the Wisconsin Economic Development Association to help match financial institutions and foundations with economic inclusion strategies across Wisconsin. The CRA Network has created six (6) regions to help align the community development needs and opportunties of both financial institutions and the communities that are in served in each region.  This event is free, but registration is requested.  The meeting will be held at Wild Ridge Event Center in Eau Claire, WI.  A meeting with Financial Institutions will commence at 10:00 AM.   A networking lunch with financial institutions, housing, workforce, community and economic development professionals will be held at Noon.  A presentation from the FDIC will be part of the luncheon.

The CRA Network has an application process for projects that will allow applicants to receive technical assistance in desiging the project proposal for financial institutions and foundations.  .
