The Family Financial Counseling and Advocacy Program

The Family Financial Counseling and Advocacy Program helps low-income families and individuals overcome barriers to achieving economic self-sufficiency. Counselors possess extensive knowledge of welfare rules and regulations, government benefits (work supports), and community resources focusing on family economic and social well-being. Counselors assist clients in identifying and obtaining resources for moving from welfare to work or from entry-level work to higher paying positions.

Counselors also assist clients with welfare and other government support programs and serve as liaisons to legal service programs.
