Financial Literacy and Asset Security Program for Family Members

Many times, seniors receive some assistance from their family members; this support is often monetary.  In the communities that we are targeting, however, this can cause a severe strain on the senior and their family.  This part of the Health-Smart Holistic Health for Seniors aims to address the social support that senior participants have by teaching their supporting family members tenets of financial literacy.

Additionally, the program aims to help these family members save up at least $600 worth of emergency funds so that, in the event an unexpected expense arises (such as a sudden medical bill), they are prepared.

In order to do this, our team has partnered with the Jacksonville Urban League.
