What are individual development accounts (IDAs)?

IDAs are matched savings accounts for low-income households that are designed to help them invest in assets, such as home ownership, small business, or postsecondary education. The state will match eligible savings at a rate of one dollar for every dollar deposited by an IDA accountholder into their account. Accountholders can earn up to four thousand dollars in state match.
