Fireteam Foundation

The impetus of the Fireteam Foundations programming is imbedded in the financial education and training of veterans in rural communities though out Texas. By delivering the developed curriculum by the USAA Education Foundation. The core curriculum in comprised of delivering a complete lesson plan on the fundamental financial principles that every veteran can leverage to become financially stable. The curriculum consists of the following: financial planning & goal setting, buying, refinancing or renting a home, buying a vehicle, managing credit or debt, preparing their financial future through a comprehensive budget analysis for the entire year. Our instructors are community leaders, financial sector professionals, and veterans that have successfully transitioned from active duty into the civilian work force that provide the peer support and direction to program participants. The coursework and classroom lecture time follows the curriculum and will meet one evening per week for nine weeks. The financial curriculum requires the participants to develop an annual personal budget in those specific corresponding stages beginning with financial planning & goal setting to assist the participants on the identification of their cash inflows and outflows with regard to their financial position. Effectively providing curriculum, training and continued support will provide the veterans in Montgomery County, Texas the opportunity to better comprehend, apply, and engage their finances, thereby reducing the most common stressor to transitioning and at-risk veterans in the communities across the county.
