Come to the FREE two-session basic money management class at the CAC for to learn ways to budget your money and improve your financial situation. The goal of the Money Management Program is to help people discover ways in which they clip_image004can build their assets. These sessions help students establish a good credit score that can help get better interest rates, better insurance rates, and even a better apartment! In addition to classroom learning, participants will discuss their own resourceful ideas such as gardening or sharing items.

For those who come to class ready to learn and to do the work, huge changes are possible. Through this program, people have opened their own bank accounts, improved their credit scores, and started “put and take” accounts to help them save for anything from making payments to buying Christmas presents.
