Were Your Finances Hurt by COVID-19?
Financial Navigators Can Help!
The City of Fremont, in partnership with the International Rescue Committee in Oakland, is providing free phone-based Financial Navigation services to Alameda County residents through a new Financial Navigator service. Financial Navigators are now available to help you manage financial issues, identify immediate action steps, and make referrals to other programs to help your situation. During your phone session, the Navigator will ask about your concerns. Some examples might be prioritizing payments for expenses; maximizing income by accessing emergency cash assistance, loans, unemployment or short-term disability; or managing debt and guiding negotiations with a creditor.
Please note — Financial Navigators do not provide financial assistance like cash or loans. But they can connect you to services and benefit programs in Alameda County that can assist you. To request a phone session with a Financial Navigator, visit https://finnav.org/alameda or call the Fremont FRC at 510.574.2000. Provide your name, zip code, language preference, phone number and email address, and a Financial Navigator will call you within 48 hours to begin your free session. A session lasts approximately 30 minutes and is available in English, Spanish, Dari and Arabic as well as a host of other languages through the use of a language line.
