Financial Education
Participants in the Financial Education workshops meet one evening each week for six weeks. We discuss the information provided in the Money Smart curriculum for the first 5 weeks, then on the 6th week we put our household budgets together based on information we have been collecting over the previous weeks.
The topics we discuss include:
- financial decision-making
- financial goal-setting
- the importance of saving
- the importance of a household budget
- why your credit report is an asset
- understanding the different types of loans
