Financial Empowerment

The Financial Empowerment program helps people build confidence with money so they can make informed, empowered choices for themselves and their families.

Through accessible and multilingual one-on-one financial coaching, community workshops, and tax clinics, participants learn practical skills like budgeting, managing credit, tax filing, and navigating benefits. Our team also trains other frontline organizations, extending this impact across British Columbia. The result: improved stability, reduced stress, increased confidence, and more room for people to plan for the futures they want.

I attended the tax clinic and cannot express how helpful that was for me. My years of unfiled taxes had been causing an enormous amount of stress, and to get cost-free help was really amazing. Every staff member was so kind. I’m so grateful to your program for offering this service.

Being a migrant and not knowing exactly the Canadian financial system, the language barrier and some other things caused me stress and fear of making a mistake in the applications and forms, but knowing this type of support has been of great help to me and has helped me overcome obstacles.

My coach was great at talking me through some basics that I was embarrassed to feel so lost beforehand. She followed up with a nice email with some education materials.
