Before working with you, I didn’t even know what a high-yield savings account was. CAC helped me use real resources like SNAP, health insurance, that made life manageable while I figured things out. - Whitney A.
I love the wealth of knowledge that is offered to us and the “open-door policy” ask our mentors anything as well as be open and transparent about our circumstances. This really allows us to get the best out of our experience here! - Coriana J.
My credit score moved from the high 500s/low 600s to around 640–650, and I feel confident now. I’m budgeting, saving, and making better decisions because of your program. - Justin E.
I appreciated everything that this class had to offer. This is a very important service that I am very grateful to have experienced! - Angela P.

With us now shifting from the summer to fall season, there may be a quick trip you’re looking to take soon. My husband and I took a weekend trip to Boston just to get away for a few days (see my pic from their massive arboretum). But of course when deciding to go on a trip, you also need to discuss how you’re going to pay for it. For us, the answer is always credit cards. Credit cards can be powerful financial tools when used responsibly. They offer convenience, rewards, and the ability to build credit—but if misused, they can lead to a cycle of debt that's hard to escape.
In today’s fast-paced world, conversations around mental health and financial wellness are becoming more common—and more necessary. What’s less frequently discussed is how interconnected these two aspects of life truly are. Money problems can trigger or worsen mental health challenges, while poor mental health can make financial management even harder. This two-way relationship creates a vicious cycle that millions of people find themselves trapped in.
Money isn’t just about numbers—it’s about mindset. The way you think about money influences your financial decisions, wealth-building potential, and overall success. Understanding the psychology of money can help you reshape your habits and develop a healthier financial future. It can also help you to identify areas of your life where you may be sabotaging your efforts subconsciously, negatively impacting your wealth and success.
Buying a home can be scary, but it doesn’t have to be. There’s a lot that goes into the house buying process. Applying for the home loan (mortgage), building your credit score, and saving for a down payment are only a few pieces of the puzzle. There’s only one time when you buy your first home. It’s helpful to remember that you don’t have to know everything about the process to successfully buy a house.
