Financial Stability Partnership
With the support of the Osteopathic Heritage Foundation and
United Way, we hired Anita Clark as Budget Coordinator. Anita
is available to meet with any Knox County resident who would
like to look at a true 30 day budget. She can make suggestions
for saving money in some cases and make referrals to other programs
as needed. She also identified participants for the Financial
Stability Partnership which can provide additional financial
support to individuals or families that have encountered unexpected
barriers to their stability such as an unexpected death or serious
injury or a reduction in work hours.
