The Institute for Divorce Financial Analysts is seeking to increase awareness of its Certified Divorce Financial Analysts (CDFA) certification through a new initiative, a CDFA Ambassadors Program.

CDFA Ambassadors will serve as representatives of the CDFA certification by raising awareness of the role that financial professionals play in the divorce process. The ambassadors will offer expertise and guidance to “empower individuals to make informed decisions about their financial futures,” according to a news release from IDFA. Ambassadors are chosen based on leadership ability, consumer advocacy and alignment with the IDFA’s mission.

“Our CDFA Ambassadors are exceptional professionals who are dedicated to providing financial clarity during divorce proceedings,” said IDFA President Carol Lee Roberts. “They not only possess technical expertise in divorce financial planning, but they also demonstrate an unwavering commitment to our mission of consumer advocacy. Through this program, we aim to amplify their efforts in helping individuals navigate their financial futures with confidence.”

The CDFA Ambassadors Program also seeks to increase understanding of the important role of financial analysis in divorce. Ambassadors will serve as “local voices of advocacy,” according to the release, connecting individuals with resources and support that can help them make informed decisions.

The ambassadors will participate in community outreach, educational initiatives and partnerships with organizations that share the IDFA’s goal of supporting individuals through the divorce process.

The CDFA certification is for professionals specializing in financial planning and guidance to individuals going through divorce. CDFA professionals learn to analyze the long-term financial consequences of divorce settlements and assist clients to make informed decisions aligned with their financial goals.

The IDFA provides education, resources, and training to ensure a  high level of expertise in the divorce financial professional field.
