In a decade of experience, FHI has noted that most providers have very little training or education in personal finances or economics. In many cases, the people who are helping people are also struggling financially and economically, and therefore feel inadequate when attempting to assist others in these domains.
By providing training opportunities to everyone who supports the I/DD community, we are creating a common language around the issue of managing finances, reducing stress, and improving health.
FHI researches, develops, and offers trainings, curricula and applicable tools for agencies, case managers, host home providers, and advocacy groups that will benefit them both personally and professionally.
