We’re hitting pause on our Starfish Stories to talk about what’s making headlines right now — the federal government shutdown. It’s not just political drama in DC; it’s already having real consequences. The staff of the CDFI Fund has been laid off, and that’s sending shockwaves through the community development finance world.

In this episode, we unpack what’s happening, what it means for CDFIs and the communities they serve, and how we can all respond when the systems we rely on stall.

Because when the government shuts down, the work doesn’t stop — and neither do we.

We’re launching something new — and it’s all about you.

In this short episode, we introduce our new Starfish Stories series, inspired by the well-known parable of the person walking along the beach, tossing stranded starfish back into the sea — one by one. When told they couldn’t possibly save them all, they replied, “It made a difference to that one.”

That’s the heart of this series. We want to hear how you are making a difference — in your work, your community, your corner of the world. The acts may be small, but the impact is real.

Because change doesn’t always happen all at once. Sometimes, it happens one starfish at a time.
