Isles’ Financial Self-Reliance Department fosters self-reliance by offering leading-edge educational and financial products and services that support low and moderate income families to obtain assets that will lead to long-term financial stability.
Although welfare, food stamps, and housing assistance certainly help low-income families to prop up their incomes during short-term crises, this type of assistance tends to discourage or prevent families from accumulating financial assets. Isles helps families build long-term personal and financial assets – through home ownership and preservation, business creation, and financial fitness.
