Get back on track with our Debt Management Program that helps you pay your debts by negotiating monthly payments to your creditors. Work your way back to credit health by contacting us today!

Today I wanted to introduce our new Community Educator, Stephanie Block, and allow you to get to know her! Stephanie has been with Consumer Credit Counselling Services for about five and a half years and previously served as a Housing Counsellor where she counselled people with mortgage distress. She is very excited to become our newest Community Educator and we are just as excited to have her!
 
When Stephanie offers a Home Buyer Education course, she typically offers them during the day. Stephanie begins the course with a pretest. This is the first step in the course and it gives Stephanie an idea of what people know about purchasing a home and also what they need to know. Often times a lender may require this type of education. From there, Stephanie incorporates a PowerPoint presentation to create an interactive atmosphere with her students. She also loves being asked questions!
 
There are also a variety of different courses that we offer – everything from budget planning, financial fitness to credit repair! If you have an interest in any of these courses, Stephanie would love to get you in touch with a counsellor. Simply register directly with Stephanie at extension 312.
 
It is always important to reassess your finances at any time, especially before tax season! This would also allow you to know how to best allocate your tax return within your budget. Thanks and have a great day!
 

Budget Planning: Do Your Finances Need a Spring Cleaning?

Get back on track with our Debt Management Program that helps you pay your debts by negotiating monthly payments to your creditors. Work your way back to credit health by contacting us today!

It’s finally springtime! If you’re like me and tired of winter, now is a good time to sit down and look at your finances and your family budgeting. If you haven’t already done so, find a weekend where it is still cool and gather your bills, organize them, find out where your money is going and work on your budget!

If you need help with this, come see us at Consumer Credit Counselling Services! Our counselors can sit down with you, look over your income, finances and credit debt and provide you with alternatives for getting out of debt! We currently have the “SharpenYour Financial Focus” campaign going so if you come into our office, the counseling session is free, you take a test online, speak with a counselor and we will create a free account for you at freecreditscore.com. This gives you 12 months of free access!

Please give us a call and we would be glad to help you. Thanks and have a great day!
