Description:

This program is for singles and couples who want to gain control of their finances and learn how to effectively communicate about money matters.

Money is an important issue for everyone – in any economic situation. Finances and relationships can affect each other in positive and negative ways. When finances are going well, they can help the relationship; when finances are not going well, they can cause relationship damage. It’s important to get your money on track, for yourself and for your most important relationships. Our workshop will give you a little bit of both – money skills and some important relationship skills, so you can actually talk about money with the significant people in your life!

In this workshop, we will cover these topics:

• Developing an effective plan for saving, reducing debt, and budgeting
• Learning how your habits and attitudes about money affect your relationships
• Dealing with conflict around $ in a healthy manner - attack debt, not your partner

“My husband and I have been able talk about money in better ways, and are even able to have those hard discussions with my kids whom we have supported beyond our means in recent years.” - Judy
