Galloway, N.J. – The Stockton Center on Successful Aging is sponsoring a free workshop, “When Income Decreases, But the Bills Don’t,” for older adults on Tuesday, July 19, from 9:30 – 10:30 a.m. at the Galloway Senior Center, 621 White Horse Pike, Galloway, N.J. Older adults from the community are invited to attend.

Jennifer Fox from Money Management International (a non-profit credit counseling service), will facilitate the workshop.

An unexpected loss of income can be devastating. This workshop will teach participants strategies that may help them “stay afloat” in the face of a sudden decrease in income resulting from issues such as job loss, divorce, injury, or illness.

Participants will learn how to assess their financial situation, analyze the available resources and set financial priorities, create a plan to handle their financial shortfall, and contact their creditors and discuss potential hardship programs.

No registration necessary. Visit the SCOSA website at www.stockton.edu/scosa for more information, updates and cancellation procedures.
