The Albanese Labor Government is strengthening its commitment to financial counselling announcing more than $1.7 million in funding to further support capability and capacity building at today's Financial Counselling Australia (FCA) National Conference.
The funding includes a $1.2 million extension for the National Debt Helpline (NDH) Appointment Booking system to link clients up with face-to-face counselling services, and $550,000 for FCA to support the development of an outcomes framework and a data strategy.
Financial counsellors play a vital role helping Australians in financial difficulty by providing free, independent, and confidential advice on ways to manage debts and make informed choices about their money.
