Family Self-Reliance Resources
Nearly everyone has been affected by our strained economy. In all of the financial chaos, misinformation and even fraud are prevalent. To provide a trusted place to turn, KBYU Eleven pulled together a bit of “economic cents” to give direction and resources in the crisis. Beyond KBYU Eleven, there are many organizations and resources that can help, including Community Action. Call 2-1-1 Information and Referral to find the right resources for you.
