HANDS Savings Program - Financial Wellness Assessment

CFPB Financial Well-Being Scale

Following a rigorous research effort to develop a consumer-driven definition of financial well-being, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) developed and tested a set of questions–a “scale”–to measure financial well-being. The scale is designed to allow practitioners and researchers to accurately and consistently quantify, and therefore observe, something that is not directly observable–the extent to which someone’s financial situation and the financial capability that they have developed provide them with security and freedom of choice. We thank you in advance for taking the time to answer this financial well-being questionnaire honestly. The results will allow us to shape the HANDS Savings Program to meet your level of financial security and freedom. If you have any questions about the form or have any trouble completing it, please contact Colleen, the Case Manager, at chiggins@svdpgeorgia.org.
