Your Credit & Your Budget Workshop

This workshop teaches participants how personal income and budgeting impacts personal credit. By using personal financial planning principles, participants learn how to get on track to financial fitness. Topics on credit explain consumer credit rights based on the Federal Trade Commission guidelines that will help them learn how to manage reported credit records.

Participants receive a credit improvement pamphlet that outlines the necessary steps to remove negative and/or inaccurate information from the three credit bureaus.

These workshops give participants the knowledge and resources to understand and establish bank accounts, understand the importance of credit, improve credit scores, and develop budgets from plans into action.

A one time Credit Technical Assistance workshop is offered to participants who have completed Your Credit & Your Budget workshop. This service assists participants with writing the major credit bureaus to dispute and or remove inaccurate credit information from their reports.
