| Housing Counseling
The Housing Counseling Program offers two different first-time homebuyer's workshops along with homebuyer, budget, and credit/debt counseling. In addition, the program can also work one-on-one with individuals to help them understand the home buying process as well as help them address any barriers to homeownership that they face.
First-Time Homebuyer's Workshops
These one-day workshops are free to the public and take participants through the home buying process from loan application to closing and life as a homeowner. Lenders, such as CHFA, Rural Development, and others, require that borrowers participate in this type of training.
Homebuyer Counseling Workshops
An expanded version of the First-Time Homebuyers Workshop, these workshops take a more in-depth look at the home buying process and are designed for participants who need additional assistance to become homeowners. There are six workshops in the series and each workshop is two hours long.
Financial Success Classes
These one-hour classes take an in-depth look at the skills needed to achieve financial success. There are six workshops in the series.
