Free online courses Money Moccasins- momentum presented by Indigenous Financial Empowerment Facilitator Theodora WarriorHealy at https://courses.momentum.org/account/my-courses# You need to sign up to get an account and then work through the courses. The goal of the program is to give participants more confidence when they walk into a bank or talk to a financial advisor. Opening accounts, RRSPs for kids and tax-free savings accounts are just some of the topics discussed. The program uses a combination of storytelling and knowledge sharing that is a common way for indigenous people to learn from each other. In this case they sit together and talk about finances and gain financial empowerment that a lot of people have not had access to before. Participants who attend all five workshops (Assets, Budget, Banking, Credit, and Consumerism) receive a certificate of completion that can be applied to their credit report.
