Move for Change is about supporting the work that mpowered does each day to create financial security for all.

In working with clients to achieve their financial goals, a common thread in many story lines is how physical health impacts financial health.

Medical debt. Accidents. Lost income from missing work. Disability. Insurance premiums. Filing Insurance claims. Collections. Billing mistakes. Unaffordable costs.

These are all things that have financial impacts as a result of physical health challenges. Did you know that medical debt is the biggest cause of bankruptcy filings?  When physical health is at stake, so is financial health.

We work with clients on their challenges to address the effects that physical health problems can cause financially. This can mean making payment arrangements on past due medical debt, calling collectors, and disputing incorrect bills. Or, it can mean a more proactive approach like budgeting to pay insurance premiums, referring someone to apply for Medicaid, or saving for emergencies to pay for deductibles and copays.

This makes a real difference!

In addition, we know that financial stress can CAUSE some serious health problems like depression and anxiety.  In our financial coaching work, clients report feeling less stressed, and a sense of hope and control of their future.

Now, isn't that something that you want to support?!
