Rooted in cultural wisdom and tailored to specific Native American contexts, these classes provide essential knowledge on budgeting, saving, investing, and managing credit. They emphasize traditional values of communal support, responsible stewardship, and long-term planning, aligning with the holistic approach to wealth often valued in Native cultures. By imparting practical financial skills within the cultural framework, these classes not only enhance individual financial well-being but also strengthen the economic resilience of Native American communities, fostering a future of prosperity and self-determination.
