SUMMARY:Beyond the Spreadsheet: Helping Clients Build Budgets That Stick
DESCRIPTION:Budgets don’t fail—budgets without context fail. \n\n\n\n Too often\, clients leave counseling sessions with a “perfect” budget on paper that unravels within weeks. This 90-minute interactive webinar is designed for housing and financial counselors at all experience levels who want to move beyond static worksheets and help clients build sustainable\, adaptable budgets that hold up in real life. \n\n\n\n This session blends practical budgeting tactics with behavior-based strategies\, trauma-informed approaches\, and creative engagement tools that counselors can immediately use with clients. Whether you’re a HUD-approved housing counselor helping pre- or post-purchase customers\, or if you’re a financial coach working with households facing financial instability\, this webinar will expand how you think about budgeting\, and how your customers experience it. \n\n\n\n By the end of the webinar\, the learner will be able to: \n\n\n\n\nShift budgeting conversations from “numbers on a page” to long-term sustainability and client buy-in.\n\n\n\nApply multiple budgeting approaches based on client readiness\, income volatility\, and life stage.\n\n\n\nUse interactive and client-centered techniques that increase engagement and follow-through.\n\n\n\nIdentify common reasons budgets fail and adjust strategies before clients disengage.\n\n\n\n\n Housing counselors and coaches will experience a new budgeting mindset: How to reframe budgets as living tools that evolve with a client’s life\, not rigid rules they feel judged by. Sue offers fresh\, low-tech ways to actively involve clients during budgeting sessions\, even when motivation is low\, and she’ll have you thinking about scripts and prompts that help clients open up about spending habits\, financial stress\, and trade-offs. You will have techniques that participants can use the very next day with renters\, homeowners\, and households from various backgrounds. Don’t miss this fun filled webinar that will help you start off you 2026 on the right foot!

SUMMARY:Leadership Summit Debrief
DESCRIPTION:In September\, NCRC convened more than 160 community leaders\, financial institutions\, and policy experts in Nashville for a bold new kind of summit\, one focused not on more panels\, but on structured\, action-oriented dialogue. We heard from national thought leaders about the “new normal” facing communities: shrinking federal support\, widening disparities\, and a growing sense of isolation among local changemakers. We listened\, reflected\, and rolled up our sleeves to start imagining what new systems we need to build—in housing\, small business and workforce—to ensure inclusive\, sustainable futures. \n\n\n\nThe work took place through dialogue tables that brought people together\, data-driven discussions that helped us understand the facts\, and community ideas that inspired new ways to make change. We also explored partnerships across different sectors to find solutions that go beyond “business as usual.” \n\n\n\nNow\, the work continues. Join us for our Post-Summit Debrief\, Wednesday\, November 6\, 1 pm ET. \n\n\n\nAlready\, 200+ people have registered to hear the key themes\, what we’ve learned\, and how this will inform NCRC’s coalition-building\, advocacy and member support strategy going forward. \n\n\n\nIf you care about building a just economy\, this is your invitation to stay engaged and help shape what’s next. \n\n\n\nSpeakers:  \n\n\n\nJacelyn Matthews\, Director\, National Training Academy\, NCRC \n\n\n\nDevin Thompson\, Director of Health Equity & Impact\, NCRC
