About

CBA's mission is to help organizations move people from poverty to prosperity through credit building. We do this by building the capacity of our nonprofit and municipal members to implement strategies necessary to help their clients build credit and enter the financial mainstream. CBA fills a VOID by being a bridge for credit building activities for NON- traditional financial service providers. Our activities fall along a continuum, which allows CBA to meet our members' needs at wherever point they may be in the credit building process.
