Debt Management and Credit Counseling programs involve working with a Certified Financial Counselor who can understand your needs. If used carefully, credit can be a helpful financial tool. Don’t take on more credit card borrowing or interest-free loans than you can afford to repay. A budget, or spending plan, will help you cover all your needs, wants, expenses, and saving goals.

A good credit history opens financial doors that may be closed to those with a less than perfect credit history.
