Learn. Plan. Thrive. Financial Workshops and Counseling for Your Community!

Money impacts every aspect of our lives—from paying rent to pursuing career goals. Yet, financial education is often overlooked in spaces where it’s needed most: workplaces, workforce development programs, and community organizations (including college campuses). At American Financial Solutions, we provide FREE financial education classes tailored to meet the needs of specific audiences. Whether that is employees, college students, or community groups, our approach recognizes that everyone comes to financial education with different backgrounds, experiences, and even trauma around money and financial systems.

Why Financial Education and Counseling Matters 
Employees: Financial stress is one of the leading causes of workplace distraction and absenteeism. When employees feel more confident managing their finances—whether it's budgeting, paying off debt, or preparing for homeownership—they’re more engaged and productive at work. Offering financial education can be a valuable workplace benefit that supports overall well-being.

WorkSource & Workforce Development Participants: Many individuals seeking employment or career advancement also face financial hurdles—such as managing student loans, improving credit for stable housing, or navigating banking systems. Financial education can provide the tools they need to build financial stability alongside career growth.

College Students & Young Adults: For many, college is the first time they manage their own money, and the financial decisions they make now can impact their future for years. Our workshops help students understand credit, budgeting, saving, and avoiding common financial pitfalls, setting them up for long-term success.

Community Leaders & Group Organizers: If you work with groups—whether in nonprofits, faith-based organizations, or community programs—you’ve likely seen the financial challenges that many individuals face. By bringing financial education to your community, you can help people gain confidence, access resources, and break cycles of financial hardship.

What We Offer – A Trauma-Informed Approach to Financial Education
We know that money isn’t just about numbers—it’s deeply personal. Many people have experienced financial trauma, discrimination in financial systems, or limited access to resources. Through our tailored workshops, we help participants build confidence in managing their money, improving credit, and preparing for homeownership. Our approach is culturally responsive, practical, and focused on real-world financial empowerment—ensuring that every participant walks away with actionable tools to navigate their financial journey.
