Financial Awareness, Budget, and Credit Counseling
This service is offered at no cost to anyone requesting the service. A counselor will meet with each client on a one-on-one basis and evaluate the client’s individual situation. The counselor and client will work together to create short- and long-term goals to try and reduce the amount of debt the client has and create a plan to develop savings and assets. Upon request, the counselor can also evaluate a client’s credit history and provide suggestions to improve the credit score.
