Financial Pathways Announces a New Community Award

Financial Pathways of the Piedmont (FPP) is the community’s financial health first responder. Our entire mission and history centers on helping residents improve their financial well-being by providing professional, personal, and comprehensive financial counseling, housing counseling, and financial education to all members of the community.

We understand these are difficult times for many families and understand the complexities of juggling priorities with limited means. One of the ways we are assisting individuals and families is via rental counseling, which helps renters navigate their options to maintain housing. If you are behind on your rent, contact us to schedule an appointment with one of our certified Housing Counselors. The counselor will review your credit report, budget, and finances to develop an action plan to help you manage your money and pay your rent on time.

 
 

Partner Workshops 

Financial Pathways of the Piedmont provides individualized counseling and coaching services. We educate and provide workshops that coach individuals through financial life cycles including student loan counseling, budgeting for success, and achieving financial goals such as homeownership or retirement. While we hold monthly public workshops, we are also proud to provide foundational financial literacy services and workshops to enhance and ensure key outcomes for clients of our partner organizations.
