Financial Fitness Education

Springfield Neighborhood Housing Services provides FREE Financial Fitness education for clients who are not ready to purchase for various reasons, such as credit issues, bankruptcy or high debts.  The Financial Fitness program identifies the obstacles that prevent people from buying, helps them develop a plan and budget, and monitors the customer's progress towards overcoming the obstacles.  The workshops are ten hours of intensive education covering topics including:
