Part 3: HANDS ON BANKING, Tuesday, March 19th, 5:30-7:30pm
Do your current methods of managing income and paying bills not work for you? Do you frequently owe fees that you find confusing and expensive? Join us for this exploration of banks, credit unions and the services they offer. You will discuss various ways in which having an account at a bank or credit union can help–or hurt–your personal finances. You’ll come away with a clear picture of what services might be right for you.
Part 4: BUILDING, REPAIRING & PROTECTING CREDIT, Tuesday, March 26th, 5:30-7:30pm: Good credit is a crucial ingredient to most recipes for financial success, but what does it mean to have good credit and what can be done if you have poor credit or no credit history at all? In this workshop, we will explore the basic components of a credit report and talk about what you can do to address inaccurate or damaging items. Other topics covered include steps you can take when turned down for credit and information about your rights related to credit.
