Financial Stability

United Way's Financial Stability Partnership is a new national initiative aimed at helping individuals and families attain and preserve assets, become more financially stable, and achieve long-term economic independence. The United Way movement seeks to identify and address root causes as an effective means of tackling issues and transforming communities. Yet, community issues stemming from personal, economic, and environmental factors are growing increasingly more complex. The rising costs of housing, healthcare, utilities, and education, coupled with changes in the economy, have left many hardworking individuals struggling to support themselves and their families. With input from national experts, United Way leaders, and community investors, United Way designed a stepped approach that helps low- to moderate-income individuals and families increase their personal income, build savings, and gain and benefit from productive assets, such as a home, post-secondary education, small business development, and/or retirement savings.
