Small Group Financial Coaching
Maryland CASH is now conducting a FREE Group Financial Coaching program in Baltimore City and Montgomery County. Group members will select a financial goal and meet every week for 6 weeks to work on that goal and learn about financial topics such as developing a Spending Plan, understanding credit reports and ways to build/rebuild credit--
Baltimore Group will meet on Tuesdays at 5:30pm, starting in June at our office (217 E. Redwood St., Suite 1500, Baltimore, MD 21202). The Montgomery County group will meet on Thursdays at 6:00pm at 620 E. Diamond Ave., Gaithersburg, MD. Maryland CASH Campaign coaches will work with the group to boost your financial IQ goal, identify key steps to achieving your goal, AND provide support and encouragement along the way.
Participants need to be comfortable discussing their current financial situation, setting a financial goal to work on, complete assignments related to that goal and report on the weekly progress made toward reaching those goals with all group members in a structured and confidential environment.
Participation is 100% free-we are a non-profit organization that has received funding from the Annie. E. Casey Foundation in order to offer this program. Please click
