The bill would amend the Finance Code to require the Office of Consumer Credit Commissioner (OCCC) to compile information on financial literacy into a one-page document and post the document on the offices Internet website. The bill would require health and human services agencies to ensure that the document produced by the OCCC is offered to persons who receive services from the agency at locations at which those persons frequently access services provided by the agency.
