How we help
Financial counselling: Our financial counsellors will provide you with an assessment of your situation. This helps them offer advice on how to handle debt related issues. They work with you to help you achieve your goals and make better financial decisions. This includes education about your rights and obligations to creditors.
Financial capability: Case Managers will partner with you to achieve financial literacy. They help you to understand your income, bank accounts and budgets. They look at each situation as a whole and help you to access other appropriate services.
Emergency relief: This service helps people with emergency relief in times of financial crisis. Accessing emergency relief is an entry point into the FWC program.
