Matched Savings Accounts for low and moderate income families
Individual Development Accounts (IDA's) are matched savings accounts that enable American families to save, build assets, and enter the financial mainstream. Supported with financial literacy training, IDA programs are an innovative anti-poverty tool that incorporates an asset-based approach to helping low-income families and individuals break the cycle of poverty. Participants of the IDA program can use these savings accounts for the purchase of a first home, small business start up and post-secondary education. Every dollar saved by a participant is matched by two dollars, to assist families in reaching their goals.For more information click here.
 
Florida's Hardest Hit

The federal government has allocated funding to help pay the mortgages of qualified homeowners who are unemployed or underemployed through no fault of their own. The Florida Hardest-Hit Fund (HHF) program aims to assist qualified Florida homeowners by providing mortgage assistance for up to six (6) months (capped at $12,000), or until the homeowner finds adequate employment to resume paying the mortgage (whichever comes first).

HHF assistance is paid directly to the loan servicer/lender for those homeowners deemed eligible to participate in the program.

To find out if you qualify for assistance, please visit the HHF official website at www.FLHardestHitHelp.org to review eligibility criteria and to apply. For further questions, contact the Hardest- Hit Toll-Free Information line at 1-(877) 863-5244, Monday- Friday, 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.
