Right on the money
No matter what your goals or circumstance, financial literacy is a crucial life skill. As the cost of living rises in both rural and urban areas in Ontario, it’s important to plan wisely and deliberately for a full, independent life. And, when you have a spinal cord injury or other disability, the need is even greater, as earning can be delayed or compromised. By exploring your options, gaining relevant knowledge and skills, you’ll build a stronger financial landscape. We are proud to partner with Hudson Wealth to provide you with expert information and resources.
Partners in Financial Health
Firstly, allow me to express how proud we are to sponsor an organization as indispensable as Spinal Cord Injury Ontario. We have worked with survivors of spinal cord injury for many years and each of them has expressed what a valuable resource this organization has been from the early going and on through the years. As such, we are delighted to be a part of the family and to provide financial counselling and planning services to its members.
