Our Success Stories

I was very impressed with the counseling I received. My counselor was patient and knowledgeable. I’ve already begun referring people I know who could benefit from this service. I enrolled in the Debt Management Program and can’t wait for it to get into effect on the road to paying off my debt in 5 years.

Things were explained to my satisfaction and all questions were answered to help me further understand what I needed to know. At times I felt the questions and answers were a little too technical but were explained to my satisfaction when I questioned the gentleman who was conducting the interview. At the conclusion of the interview I felt I had a good knowledge of what I needed to continue the process. But if something did arise that I needed further help with I would have felt free to contact you for further assistance.

Nancy

My wife and I had a most pleasurable and informative counseling session with April last night. April listened to our situation and provided us thoughtful and professional direction with our family situation now and in the near future. She made us feel at ease and her patience and time dedicated to walk us through the steps was greatly appreciated. Without saying, we were most impressed with her service and care.
