SUMMARY:Types of Credit (English)
DESCRIPTION:Join our Financial Empowerment program with VPL for a free online workshop covering all things credit. \nExplore the good and bad types of credit\, when it’s wise to use credit\, your rights and responsibilities for using credit\, and how to build a good credit score — you’ll even leave understanding why having good credit matters. Along the way learn to avoid credit debt and how to get out from under debt.  \nTo join this Zoom event\, you will need a computer\, tablet\, or phone with internet access. (It is ideal to have a webcam and microphone\, though this is not essential). A link and password to join the Zoom session will be sent by email ahead of the program.  \nPresented in English.  \nTo register:\nhttps://vpl.bibliocommons.com/events/6474edbf5a33d42800ce29d8
