Financial Success Program

ENROLLMENT

Participants Information and Enrollment

The Financial Hope Collaborative has offered the Financial Success Program (FSP) to over 1,000 people in the Omaha metro area since 2009. The FSP is a model that consistently decreases financial stress, increase incomes, and improves health outcomes for people stressed about their money.

The FSP focuses on monthly cash flow management. The mantra "Cash Flow Creates Change" reinforces the importance of that skill along with identifying new financial choices. The FSP model includes:

  • 9 weeks of in-class financial education

  • 1 year of financial coaching

  • Childcare

  • Dinner

Classroom topics include credit repair, savings, predatory lenders, insurance and negotiating with creditors. Access to the Level Payment Plan with both OPPD and MUD is also available. Small, realistic action steps are designed to create the sense of moving forward and show that change is possible. Early success boosts confidence to tackle tougher financial issues. One year of financial coaching provides the support and resources as people make strides towards financial stability. Financial coaches come from a variety of backgrounds, but generally are someone who wished the FSP had been available for them.
