Financial Opportunity Centers Indianapolis LISC's Financial Opportunity Center Financial Opportunity Centers are career and personal financial service centers that focus on the financial bottom line for low-to-moderate income individuals. This means changing people's financial behavior in a way that encourages them to make a long-term commitment to increasing income, decreasing expenses and acquiring assets. FOCs provide families with services across three areas: employment placement and career improvement; financial education and coaching; and public benefits access. These core services are integrated together and provided to clients in a bundled fashion in order to reinforce one another and to provide a multi-faceted approach to income and wealth building. The model for these centers was developed by the Annie E. Casey Foundation. Currently LISC has centers in Chicago, Detroit, Indianapolis, Minneapolis/St. Paul, Milwaukee and Oakland. > Read a full description of the Core Program Elements Downloads:> Financial Opportunity Centers - Program Summary (PDF, 74 KB) |
