In an effort to ensure that WNC consumers
achieve financial stability and reclaim their financial future, OnTrack WNC
Financial Education and Counseling is participating in the Sharpen Your
Financial Focus™ program. This nationwide initiative, launched by the National
Foundation for Credit Counseling® (NFCC®) in partnership with major financial
service companies, was developed to allow consumers to take the first step
toward achieving their financial goals. OnTrack WNC Financial Education and
Counseling, a member of the NFCC, is providing WNC residents with financial
reviews, financial self-assessment tools, and educational workshops as a part
of the initiative.
“OnTrack WNC Financial Education and Counseling is pleased
to be a part of this important program. With support from national financial
service companies including Bank of America, Chase, GE Capital Retail Finance,
and Wells Fargo, we are able to provide consumers with the financial skills
necessary for sound financial management and long-term stability,” remarked
OnTrack WNC’s Executive Director Celeste Collins.
WNC residents are encouraged to participate in the Sharpen
Your Financial Focus program through the following actions:
