About this program

Funded by a grant to the Library Foundation of Hennepin County from the Investor Protection Trust (IPT), a nonprofit organization devoted to investor education, this program at Hennepin County Library is presented in partnership with the Minnesota Department of Commerce, the Financial Planning Association of Minnesota, Twin Cities Public Television and the Vital Aging Network.

This four-part series is a program of the Investor Education in Your Community program.
Investor Protection in Your Community
“How can I afford retirement?” is one of the major questions the baby boomer generation is asking as they become eligible for Social Security. This program is designed for individuals at all levels of investment experience who are either approaching retirement or have recently retired. The purpose is to provide free access to objective, noncommercial information about investments and retirement planning, so that individuals can make informed choices, recognize and avoid investment fraud, and manage their retirement finances effectively.

What attendees have said about this program offered in other cities:
"This seminar was clear, concise, thorough and comprehensive.”
"I think this was one of the best education series I could attend on investing for retirement."
"Thank you for offering this - I already feel spurred to action - I know I need to save more aggressively for retirement."


At this series of programs participants will:
  • Learn about the investment process from financial experts
  • Discover investment resources available at Hennepin County Library
  • Explore resources available from community organizations

    Each program in the four-part series includes a noncommercial presentation on a specific topic by a financial expert, a review of library resources given by a reference librarian, a question and answer panel, and a community resource fair.

    Programs are free and open to the public. Registration is required.
