The Nashville Financial Empowerment Center offers no-cost, financial counseling to all Davidson County residents.

A program of the Mayor’s Office in partnership with United Way of Greater Nashville, the Nashville Financial Empowerment Center (FEC) helps people move from a state of instability to a state of empowerment with new savings habits, higher credit scores and lower debt burdens. Since opening its doors in 2013, the Nashville FEC has helped 11,890 clients reduce their debt by $39.6 million and increase their savings by $7.4 million.

Becoming financially empowered means you can save for an emergency, purchase a car or a home, get a degree to improve your wages, or start a small business. Whether you are in chronic financial trouble, an unexpected crisis arises, or you just want to make sure you are on the right track, individualized counseling can move you toward greater financial stability.

Meeting with our financial counselors can help you:

Plan for your future
Establish or improve credit
Manage debt
Create a budget
Increase savings
Maximize cashflow
Legacy Planning

Counseling is available in English and Spanish with access to language and translation services in most languages.
