Financial Education
At Habitat, we believe that financial education is critical to successful long-term homeownership and to building intergenerational wealth and improving health and education outcomes for families. That’s why Habitat prioritizes helping families learn how to budget and save, preparing them to manage an affordable mortgage as homeowners.

Live Webinar | Pathway to Homeownership: Understanding Credit, Homeownership & Mortgage Basics
Wednesday October 22 @ 6:00pm-7:30pm
This workshop will guide participants through the essential steps toward becoming a successful homeowner. We’ll explore the ins and outs of credit — how credit scores and reports work, how to establish and improve credit, and why it matters when applying for a mortgage. Participants will also learn how to prepare for homeownership by building a realistic budget, organizing financial documents, and developing healthy savings habits. The session will conclude with an overview of common mortgage options for first-time homebuyers and available down payment assistance programs to help make homeownership more attainable.
