LSS Financial Counseling receives voluntary contributions from creditors who participate in Debt Management Plans (DMP). Since creditors have a financial interest in getting paid, most are willing to make a contribution to help fund LSS’ program. However, LSS will work with all creditors regardless of whether they contribute, and your accounts with your creditors will always be credited with one hundred percent (100%) of the amount you pay through LSS. 1-800-528-2926 www.TopLinecu.com Scan here for financial counseling details.

Budget counseling is available to anyone concerned about their financial situation or having difficulty with debt. A certified counselor will help you achieve your financial goals by assisting in developing a workable spending plan and identifying issues to help you become a better money manager. Debt Management* Worried about your credit card debt? Creditors demanding more than you can pay each month? Certified counselors will provide tips on how to deal with collectors, consumer rights and debt repayment options including Debt Management Plans. A Debt Management Plan (DMP) may be the answer if your income allows you to meet your day-to-day living expenses and leaves enough for reasonable payments to creditors. With a DMP you pay your creditors through one monthly payment to LSS Financial Counseling. Because they are more likely to be paid in full, most creditors will stop any late fees and reduce interest rates. And free, ongoing financial counseling will help you build financial success. Credit Reports and Scores Understanding what’s in your credit report and score is an important part of managing your finances. LSS offers a free Credit Report Review service. And, if needed, the certified counselors can even help you obtain a copy of your credit report and score. Housing Counseling Looking at becoming a home owner? Having trouble keeping up with housing expenses? Wondering if refinancing is a good idea? Combining housing education with budget counseling, LSS certified counselors can assist with housing questions, including pre-purchase, delinquency or foreclosure.
