In July, OCIA hosted a free Financial Literacy Class led by Mark Jama of Primerica. The interactive session focused on helping participants take control of their finances, reduce financial stress, and plan for a stronger financial future.

Topics included creating and managing a realistic budget, understanding credit and debt, improving credit scores, smart saving strategies, banking basics, interest, and an introduction to investing and long-term financial planning. Participants also discussed everyday financial habits that can contribute to long-term financial success.

The class provided an opportunity for community members to learn practical strategies, ask questions, and build greater confidence in making informed financial decisions.

OCIA thanks Mark Jama for sharing his knowledge and helping our community build greater financial awareness and confidence.
