NYAPRS We Can Work / We Can Save

invites you to a special summer series of regional forums

 

Finding Hidden Treasure: Map Your Way to Financial Wellness

 

SAVE THE DATE!                   OPEN TO ALL!

 

We know from talking to people across the state that a majority of those
who receive disability benefits want to work and save toward life dreams
- including economic self-sufficiency. We also know, through countless
success stories like those shared in our earlier We Can Work campaign
that financial wellness is a key factor in overall wellness - and it can
be achieved when people have the right information and tools. 

 

While those receiving disability benefits continue to face many
financial challenges, this special We Can Work / We Can Save summer
series is designed for participants to increase financial literacy,
create a plan for prosperity, identify programs that can further
increase opportunities to work and save, and find out more about the US
Department of Treasury transition paper checks to electronic benefits
payments and the Go Direct(r) Campaign.
