WFAA, December 6, Minority groups organizing in Dallas to open dialogue with banks, increase lending
A coalition of community groups is forming in Dallas, taking advantage of momentum from a WFAA investigation showing 20% of banks in the county do not serve the largely minority communities below I-30.
The National Community Reinvestment Coalition, or NCRC, has successfully organized communities across the country and is now focusing on Dallas. It provides data, experience and guidance in how to take advantage of the CRA and encourage banks to lend more money in underserved communities.
