Financial Wellness
Financial instability can have a significant impact on individuals and families, including increased stress, strained relationships due to financial stress, increased anxiety or depression, increased risk of chronic health issues due to limited access to healthy food choices, reduced access to healthcare due to lack of insurance or affordability, and limited housing options. We provide resources that help empower our community.

Rich Routines: : Simple Habits That Enrich Every Area of Your Life
by Steve Houghton
DATE: May 20th and May 27th
DAY OF WEEK: Wednesdays
TIME: 3:00 PM-4:00 PM
Rich Routines explores how small, consistent daily habits can lead to lasting
improvements in health, finances, relationships, and overall well being. Rather
than focusing on big, short term changes, the book emphasizes building
simple routines that reduce stress, increase balance, and support a “richer”
life—defined not only by money, but also by physical, emotional, mental, and
spiritual wellness. This Finance & Friends book conversation will focus on
practical reflection, shared experiences, and realistic habit building.
