1/4/22: Financial Management & Budgeting for Self-Advocates
Join us while we identify the five building blocks of the budget: needs, wants, income, expense, and tracking spending. We will practice putting these together into a sample budget and discuss the difference between short-term and long-term savings goals. Understanding these building blocks will help you to develop a healthier relationship with money and be more aware of how our choices affect our budgets. You may want access to a calculator or calculator app for some simple math problems.
