About the Program

Step Up’s Financial Coaching Program is a one-on-one coaching program for young adults (ages 18–29) who identify with womanhood and are looking to build confidence and skills in managing their finances. Young adults are matched with volunteer financial coaches (ages 30+) who provide guidance, encouragement, and accountability as young adults work toward their personal financial goals.

Over the course of three months, young adults and coaches will meet virtually through Step Up’s Mentoring App for four coaching sessions. Together, they will explore topics such as budgeting, saving, setting financial goals, and creating healthy financial habits. Coaches provide a supportive, judgment-free space for participants to learn, grow, and make informed financial decisions – regardless of their starting point. Step Up equips coaches with resources and conversation guides to support meaningful and impactful coaching sessions.
