CMHA Ottawa’s Recovery College is excited to partner with EBO to present three courses about financial wellness with guest presenter Soufiane Koussih, Facilitator, Personal Finance: I’m in charge / Formateur, Mes finances, mes choix.
EBO Financial Education Centre (formerly Entraide budgétaire Ottawa) works for and with individuals so they can tackle the economic challenges they face. EBO Centre is a budget counseling community service that was founded in 1979 by community advocates who wanted to pass on their knowledge to Ottawa residents. Today, this community involvement is still reflected in the organization’s day-to-day activities as it offers budget counselling, financial education and income tax services.
