Personal Finance Resources & Coaching
We offer small classes and one-on-one coaching to help you track your spending, budget effectively, save money, pay down debt, build credit, and reach financial goals. Improve your financial management skills with the Growing Money Program!
Spend SMART 1 & 2 (2 sessions): A practical introduction on how to manage your money. If you experience regular financial stress, you struggle to save, or you want to feel more organized financially, this class is for you. This is not your typical money management class: the focus will be on you as an individual and what your personal money goals are.
Keys to Credit (1 session): Credit can be established and improved in a variety of ways and we want to help you get ahead of the game. Learn the basics and get smart about the important and often confusing world of credit.
Creating a Financial Future (2 sessions): Learn how to create long term savings and take a beginning look at investing. If you have basic money management under control and want to take charge of your finances for the future, this class is for you. To begin building wealth over a lifetime, this class is a great first step.
