UWCA’s Financial & Housing Education, a program approved by the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD), provides current and prospective homeowners and renters the information and support they need to achieve and sustain their housing goals.
Our services address an individual’s unique financial circumstances and include assistance at every turn for the first-time homebuyer, renter or owner who needs help managing finances. We serve Central Alabama clients in Blount, Chilton, Jefferson, Shelby, St. Clair and Walker counties and provide assistance in both group formats and on an individualized, one-on-one basis.
