CCNLA Staff, Carl Piehl and Jean Woods, lead Money $chool at our Shreveport Location

Catholic Charities of North Louisiana’s Financial Education Program, The Money $chool, offers low-income individuals an opportunity to learn how to better manage their income. During this financial empowerment class, attendees learn how to create a family budget, open and maintain a bank account, begin a savings account, increase their credit score, how to decrease unnecessary spending and plan for the future.

Attendees also learn how to use money in a better way, by paying down debt, adding to savings, and creating a stable future for self and family.

Our goal is to offer “a hand up rather than a handout” and guide our clients along with a better, healthier and happier financial path. CCNLA also offers financial empowerment coaching to support and encourage each person who has completed a class to follow the plan designed just for them.
