Youth Financial Literacy and Leadership Program
BNS hosts financial literacy workshops designed to educate youth on the essentials of money management. The course is offered in 2 tracts: Cohort 1, ages 11-17; and Cohort 2, ages 18-25. In order to help lay a strong foundation for future success, the YFLL program allows young people in our community to develop a working knowledge of economics with the hope that educating them will empower them to avoid costly mistakes.
Session topics will include:
- The Nature of Money (What Is It?)
- Budgeting & Savings
- Credit & Debt
