We are glad you are here because you may be interested in taking control of your money and finances. We hope to help.
This is the first module in the High School Financial Planning Program (HSFPP) presented by Purdue Extension in a free, virtual format.

- Take the brief post-survey after you have watched the video lesson and completed the activities (again, this is not a test)
