Life happens... we're here to help

At FirstLight we understand that life happens. If overwhelming debt is causing you stress, you are not alone. Millions of Americans are suffering from anxiety and depression because they have difficulty paying their financial obligations.

Whatever the cause of the debt – be it over-spending, salary reduction, or emergency expenses such as medical bills – the action you take to beat the “bill blues” is the same. At FirstLight we offer assistance with various programs and products to help you get back on track.

FirstLight’s BALANCE® Financial Fitness Program is a free service to help you achieve your short-term and long-term financial goals. We offer advice from getting out of debt to planning for your retirement, and everything in between. Get access to money management and counseling six days a week for things like:

  • Debt management
  • Home purchasing
  • General money management
  • Credit report reviews for a nominal fee

To take advantage of this important service, call 800.351.1670. Counselors are available Monday through Thursday 6am - 9pm (MST), Friday 6am - 6pm, and Saturday 9am - 6pm.
