About Neighborhood Trust
Neighborhood Trust is a national nonprofit social enterprise and marketplace innovator creating solutions to better meet the financial needs of low wage workers. Our solutions are designed to create high-impact, systemic change by directly serving both individuals and institutions. We help workers eliminate and avoid debt, which enables them to build savings, escape the vicious cycle of living paycheck to paycheck and assert control over their financial lives. For over 25 years, we’ve worked side by side with workers, collected vast data and qualitative insights about the financial challenges they face, and built strategic partnerships across the financial services ecosystem.
In 2006, Neighborhood Trust - known then as Credit Where Credit Is Due - became one of the first organizations to join New York City’s Financial Empowerment Center Program network to bring financial coaching services to City residents. It’s a program we’ve maintained since its launch and currently work closely with the New York City Office of Financial Empowerment (OFE) to administer.
About Your Role
Financial Coaches provide one-on-one coaching through the Financial Empowerment Center Program and are based out of community organizations throughout New York City.

You will also periodically travel to our headquarters located in the Washington Heights neighborhood of Manhattan to engage with other Financial Coaches as part of additional professional development or as deemed necessary by the organization.
In addition to individualized coaching sessions, Financial Coaches may also deliver presentations at partner sites - or remotely - on relevant topics of interest to our client population. You may also engage in outreach activities to promote our coaching services in the Financial Empowerment Center Program.
