Do you wake up in the middle of the night worrying about your bills? Are you living paycheck to paycheck? Do you feel overwhelmed by credit card debt? You are not alone. Most of us were never taught how to create a personal budget, save consistently, or use credit wisely. Often, a job loss, divorce, disability, or illness triggers financial problems, creating a very deep hole that make it very difficult to recover.

Becky Palmer, a nationally certified consumer credit counselor from Consumer Credit Counseling Service of NH & VT, will be here to discuss how to make smart decisions about your money. Participants can make a personal appointment to meet a CCCSNH/VT counselor at a later time to assist them with personal finances.
