Outcome: Initial Outcome
The Jessamine County Family and Consumer Sciences Extension Agent partnered with Bluegrass Community Action Partnership to host a five-week online series on Financial Management. The sessions were 30-45 minutes and covered basic budgeting, credit repair, saving, scams, and couponing—the program utilized PowerPoint slides to share the information with the class and facilitated group discussions. The sessions averaged 8-10 participants per session, roughly a 300% attendance increase compared to in-person financial classes. Due to the much higher participation rate, financial classes will continue to be offered online in the future.
An evaluation was given to participants after the conclusion of the last session, and the following findings were concluded:
