About Our Program
The Financial Coaching Program provides an opportunity to develop knowledge and skills needed to move towards financial independence by gaining healthy financial habits that lead to financial stability.
The Financial Coaching Program has two parts: a 3-4 hour teaching portion and an open discussion class. Instructors create a comfortable atmosphere so those in the class can feel confident talking about their personal finances. They’ll also identify if a participant has a need outside of the instructor’s expertise and make referrals to service providers.
Money management is rarely taught in schools. Most people learn by trial and error, and too many errors lead to debt that seems insurmountable. At its core, the Financial Coaching Program is an opportunity for anyone to learn and have an open and honest conversation about money management, long-term financial goals, and other financial topics that influence their lives. Participants will walk away from the class with a basic understanding of how banking systems work, how credit and credit scores influence our financial opportunities.
The Financial Coaching Program offers knowledge and tools that can help prevent future financial mistakes. It can also provide resources to help clients find their way out of debt.
