Mentoring Towards Independence

The CCSI Mentoring Towards Independence (MTI) program is designed to work with families who are ready to INVEST in themselves and their families. CCSI believes in the value of education and supportive relationships to empower individuals to direct their own paths to personal and financial wellbeing, and to create legacies of self-sufficiency for their families. Completion of the BFT workshop is a pre-requisite for participation in MTI.

The MTI Program consists of the following: 

  • Meet Tuesday night weekly, September - May (1st program year), 6:00-8:15 pm

  • CCSI Family dinner together begins each evening at 6:00 pm

  • Family Mentoring

  • Adult Life Skills and Financial Empowerment topics

  • Personal Financial Counseling

  • Matched Individual Development Accounts (IDA)

  • Program Yearend Celebration of Success!

While the adults attend class, the children attend a structured development program focused on financial education, personal, academic, social, and spiritual development (PASS).
