The project was led by PEAM in collaboration with Credit Union Central of Manitoba (CUCM), Credit Union Central of Canada (CUCC), CUSOURCE: Credit Union Knowledge Network and the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada (FCAC). Funding was provided by the Government of Canada's New Horizons for Seniors Program.
