COVID-19 has created multiple sources of stress. Artists and creatives have been particularly hit hard, and face unique challenges as the economy continues to be affected by the pandemic. As federal and state governments create programs to help people and businesses, it can be a challenge to make sense of, and take action on, the often overwhelming amount of information related to your finances. This free webinar provides plain language, easy-to-use information to equip you with tools to manage some of the financial impacts of COVID-19.
This webinar is broken into three main areas with the first covering resources and steps to use in the near future, as well as an explanation of new or enhanced social services. The second portion includes information about the stimulus check and its rules, as well as current COVID-19 related scams and how to protect yourself. The final portion covers the unique steps that artists can engage in to soften the impact of the recession, including budgeting tools.
