The City seeks to partner with a non-profit organization to provide services as a Financial Counseling Provider through the City’s FEC. Through the FEC program, highly trained, full-time financial counselors will work with clients to help them better manage their finances, reduce debt, establish and/or improve credit, build savings, access safe and affordable banking products, and protect and preserve their assets. Counseling services will be integrated into existing social service resources throughout the community to create various entry points into the system and positively impact the outcomes of partnering organizations. Client data will be systematically collected and tracked across a set of defined measurable outcomes using the FEC database to understand the impact on clients, bolster program credibility, and justify sustainable sources of funding.
