Asking for a family member who is struggling to get out of debt: anyone know of any services in the monsey area that help people with financial planning and how to spend responsibly?
Can you please state when answering whether you personally know they are good or just heard of them? I'm ideally looking for chessed organizations that offer this but some of us are happy to contribute to a reputable financial planner with experience in debt if it will help this person get out of this rut.
TIA!

I believe Tomchei shabbos has a department that provide these services for free. I remember a while back there
Was an ad looking to train volunteers specifically for this. Hatzlocha

You can try Mesila in Monsey- Rabbi Ephraim Pessin is the director. They do charge a small fee but it is a good program for people to work through debt reduction and learning how to budget and manage finances. I have volunteered for them in the past.

They have some good and experienced people and some are not so good.
It can also depend on your situation.
You need to ask them to give you a very good one and you will benefit very much from it.
we had 2 coaches until we finally got to the right person.
If there is anything else I can help you reach out to me.

Thank you! Is there a name of a financial advisor there who you can specifically recommend? Or just generally not at mesila? I want them to get proper guidance.
