Congratulations to two of AFN’s Bank On Arkansas+ coalition partners, the City of Little Rock and Our House, for being named as part of Cities for Financial Empowerment’s new Financial Navigator initiative.
This program will help 31 city and county governments offer their residents one-on-one remote sessions to help navigate the financial impact of COVID-19 through access to local, state, and federal resources. Trained Financial Navigators will provide structured guidance over the phone that will help people strategize around supports for disruptions to their income and other financial concerns. They will help residents triage financial issues, identify immediate action steps, and make referrals to other services.
