Join us to explore meaningful strategies, grounded in both traditional knowledge and modern approaches, that empower you to make informed financial decisions.

Preparing for Your Settlement Payment

This webinar focuses on preparing First Nations recipients for their settlement payment with a trauma-informed approach. The session is designed to support you in feeling confident as you prepare for what may come next with your settlement payment. We’ll begin by looking at your current financial picture, introduce a protective 90-day pause strategy designed to ease feelings of pressure, and offer guidance for next steps that support wellness.

We will be walking through the Financial Snapshot and Debt Inventory resource. There is no expectation to complete this resource during the webinar – you’re invited to work through it at your own pace and return to it whenever you’re ready. This information does not need to be shared with anyone; it is for your own use and reference.

We look forward to welcoming you! If you’re unable to attend or would like to revisit the material, a recording of the session will be available following the live event.
