We were honored to stand alongside President of the Cook County Board of Commissioners Toni Preckwinkle as she shared the findings from the Cook County Promise Guaranteed Income Pilot program. Working Credit proudly supported the initiative by offering one-on-one financial counseling and credit building workshops to more than 300 Cook County, Illinois residents. We’re excited to share that nearly 60% of participants who engaged with our services saw their credit scores increase—by an average of 39 points!
Learn more about the results shared on April 8 in this article from The Chicago Crusader Newspaper. You can also listen to President Preckwinkle’s remarks here.
