Foreclosure Prevention Worskshop Series

In response to the growing number of concerned homeowners calling the HF Hotline seeking immediate assistance, the Federation held its foreclosure prevention workshop on November 20th. The workshop was held in partnership with Washington Mutual and Neighborhood Housing Services. So far, over 200 individuals have learned how to reduce monthly payments, how to communicate with the bank regarding foreclosure notices and how issues such as unemployment and tragedies like a death in a family could affect their ability to qualify for loan modifications. Many more have received referrals through our hotline. The Federation will continue to offer these free workshops in the near future. For more information, please call 1-866-HF AYUDA.

Financial Literacy

From Wall Street to Main Street, everyone is feeling their pockets getting tighter due to the difficult financial times that we are facing. For that reason, the Hispanic Federation in partnership with Wachovia, will be offering a financial literacy workshop series entitled FDIC Money Smart – Building on the Financial Basics. “Money Smart” helps adults sharpen their money management skills, understand basic financial services and build financial confidence. This bilingual series will be offered free of charge to the staff and clients of the HF’s member agencies and the general public. If you are interested in this great opportunity, please contact 866 HF AYUDA.
