CFPB – More financial empowerment tools for communities

“Today, we’re expanding the Your Money, Your Goals toolkit. This toolkit is a comprehensive and interactive guide designed for organizations that serve low-income consumers. It covers topics like budgeting for daily expenses, managing debt, and avoiding common financial traps. We’re releasing three versions of the toolkit for:

  • Organizations that engage volunteers
  • Legal aid organizations
  • Workers organizations

This expansion builds on the success of last year’s launch of Your Money, Your Goals. Since then, we’ve trained over 2,000 frontline staff in both public and private non-profit social service organizations. Staff that provide a wide range of services including homeless services, mental health and emergency services, case management, and nutrition assistance programs reported feeling more confident about identifying financial challenges and resources to help their clients.”
