The city of Topeka has partnered with a national nonprofit to offer free remote guidance to local residents dealing with COVID-19-related financial challenges. Topeka has teamed up with the Cities for Financial Empowerment Fund to offer a “Financial Navigators” program. Through the program, financial navigators provide over-the-phone assistance, helping Topekans access available services and manage income disruptions stemming from the coronavirus pandemic. “We are in unprecedented times that are greatly affecting families and their finances,” said Mayor Michelle De La Isla. “This support can help our citizens navigate challenges and stay self-sufficient during the COVID-19 pandemic.”
