Welcome to COPE's Financial Center

There is no time like the new year to get your financial house in order: holiday bills are due, the tax season is fast approaching and many of us are ready to refocus our energy on our financial health.

COPE has designed a 4-step toolkit that will help you put several basics in place. Getting a free credit report should take no more than 10 minutes to accomplish. Other steps can be done over a weekend. Once done you'll have a sense of accomplishment and peace of mind. Read on and sleep easy.
