Description
We are looking for a motivated and passionate intern to support our Financial Guide (FG) team.

- Introductory Calls:
- Conduct initial “Intro to Your Money Line” calls with participants, helping them understand our services and directing them to the right resources or team members.
- Shadowing Opportunities:
- As time permits, shadow senior Financial Guides in participant sessions to build practical knowledge and skills and learn firsthand how to approach financial counseling and support for individuals and families.
