The Opportunity Council’s Early Learning and Family Services (ELAFS) department is recruiting mentors and Financial Education Development volunteers for an exciting 2-year financial resiliency program, Project X-It. We define financial resiliency as the ability to bounce back from a financial emergency. Project X-It promotes this by providing financial education and coaching and monetary incentives for families enrolled in Head Start in Whatcom, Island, and Skagit counties. Both parents and children will actively participate. In addition to building financial skills for both generations, we plan to coach families through an individualized plan that includes group learning and one-to-one opportunities.
We are seeking dedicated individuals to work with families enrolled in our project.
Info Sessions
July 24th and 26th from 6-7:30pm at 625 Cornwall Ave. Anyone interested in learning more about volunteering is welcome to come.
