In the wake of America’s transitioning housing market, USA Freedom Corps (USAFC) and the President's Advisory Council on Financial Literacy now offer a volunteer-driven financial literacy initiative - the Financial Literacy Corps. Through tools and resources, such as the USAFC Volunteer Network and the President’s Volunteer Service Award, USAFC and the President's Advisory Council are mobilizing an army of volunteers to improve individual financial literacy and help homeowners avoid foreclosure.
