Are your stressed about your financial situation? Do you have a difficult time paying for all your expenses each month?
The Financial Information Resource Management (FIRM) Program is to support and educate individuals and families to better understand their personal finances, budgeting, reduce financial stress, and empower them to reach their financial goals. The program is offered either individually or in group format.

First and/or subsequent sessions provide:

- basic money management skills
- creating a manageable budget
- debt repayment plans
- banking information
- resource information
Group information sessions
Information sessions are offered to provide participants with an introduction to basic money management skills and an understanding of financial well-being. Sessions help participants identify knowledge and skills they already possess as well as identify areas where they may want additional information or support.
