Part 3: Prioritizing Choice, Connection, Strength and Capacity in Financial Literacy Education

Building on the first two webinars in the series, this session will focus on TVIA’s third and fourth Principles: fostering choice, collaboration, and connection, and using a strengths-based and capacity-building approach to support service users in their financial literacy journeys. Participants will learn action-oriented and tailorable practice strategies to actively listen to service users, identify strengths and areas for new skills, and collaboratively reflect to co-decide on realistic and feasible next steps (“authentic choices”) will be discussed, and links to practice tools provided.

Learning objectives

By the end of this session, participants will be able to:

1. Develop strategies to actively listen to, and reflect with, service users, especially to identify strengths and areas for skill development.

2. Take a person-centred and client-led approach to collaboratively discussing options and next steps.

3. Know how to find additional resources about TVIA and equity-promoting approaches to service delivery.
