USASOC offers Soldiers, Families fun and interactive financial training
POPE AIR FIELD, N.C. (USASOC News Service, March 5, 2015) - The U.S. Army Special Operations Command Family Advocacy Program is sponsoring a financial counseling as part of the National Military Saves Week campaign.
Syble Solomon, a money personality expert, will present a workshop at the ACS Family Readiness Group Center on Pope Air Field, March 19, from 1-3 p.m.
"We know that financial stress is something so many people are dealing with and we want to help," said Frank E. Eng, USASOC Family Advocacy Specialist. "By participating (in the workshop), people are dealing with and we want to help."
Solomon will also offer training for installation and counseling professionals, Mar 19, from 9-12 p.m.
Our goal is to provide Soldiers and their Family Members with the education and information that encourages open, honest communication about the role money plays in their relationship. By understanding what drives emotional responses and developing techniques on how to discuss money, couples can reduce conflicts and stress in their relationship. There is a direct correlation between sound financial planning and happily married couples.
