Financial Futures Programs

What we do

We offer financial skill building to residents of Addison, Chittenden, Franklin, and Grand Isle Counties. If your priority is learning more about money management, building your financial stability, or increasing household assets, Financial Futures can help!

Personal Finance: small classes and one-on-one coaching to help you develop strategies for budgeting, saving money, paying down debt, building credit, and setting and achieving financial goals.
