The Building Wealth and Health Network is a trauma-informed, healing-centered financial literacy program, that combines emotional and peer support to promote self-efficacy and resilience in traditionally under-resourced communities.

The Network is an opportunity for parents and caregivers of young children to increase their income and savings, improve health and wellbeing, and shape their own futures - all in a community of their peers.

The Network does this through three main components.

1. Financial Literacy and S.E.L.F Empowerment Curriculum 
2. Matched Savings Account
3. Coaching and Peer Support

The Network has proven effective in helping members heal from adversity, feel less isolated, and improve economic security. Learn more about the impact and outcomes of the Network.
