Financial Literacy Series
The OCCUR Financial Literacy Series consists of financial training sessions providing guidance with future money management practices, how to build and manage credit, and strategies around how to build wealth. Each session is designed to instill empowerment thinking and prepare participants to make sound choices about the growth and management of their personal finances. Participants learn how to develop and implement strategic financial planning and incorporate effective money management practices, e.g. establishing priorities, seeking opportunities, and identifying suitable financial resources.
