Personal Finance Counselors
Washington State has a Personal Financial Counselor (PFC), dedicated to helping military individuals and families take control of their financial future. Whether you are looking to crush debt, build savings, budget smarter, or plan long-term goals like buying a home or retiring, we provide personalized guidance and practical tools to help you succeed. Let us build a stress-free relationship with money—one step at a time.
Who Are PFCs?
PFCs are highly trained professionals who understand the military lifestyle. They hold bachelor's degrees at a minimum or have a combination of education and financial counseling experience. They also hold nationally recognized financial counseling certifications: Accredited Financial Counselor (AFC®), Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC®) , or Certified Financial Planner (CFP®). PFCs have also completed training on military culture and must complete initial and annual DoD training.
What is the Personal Financial Counselor Program?
The PFC Program is managed by the OSD Office of Financial Readiness (OSD FINRED) and supports total force readiness. The PFC Program augments the Services’ Financial Readiness Programs, as a tool within them, to support excess direct services demand and short-term capability gaps. PFC Program services include education and counseling to provide Service members and their families with the knowledge and skills needed to achieve financial goals and maintain their financial well-being.
All active-duty, National Guard and reserve service members, their family members and survivors are eligible to receive free financial counseling services, including support of mandatory training and individual and group counseling.*
