Dealing with finances can be stressful, but StreetCred can help!
We are building out capacity to deliver financial coaching to all families with children who are patients of the pediatric clinic at BMC. Currently, we offer this service to specific pilot groups.
For these families, we offer financial coaching to help them meet their goals, including:
- Developing and sticking to a budget
- Opening a bank account
- Building your credit
- Saving for a car or a home
Most clients need multiple sessions over a period of months to meet their goals.
Sessions are:
- Virtual, via phone or video
- At flexible times to work with schedules
- Free
Financial coaches are:
- Patient Navigators (akin to Community Health Workers) and Peer Parent Coaches
- Bilingual and bicultural (languages offered include Spanish, Haitian Creole, and Portuguese)
