Xavier Student Off in New Car

posted 8/29/24 -- Kevin Jackson returned to classes at Xavier University this fall in a 2014 Ford Equinox thanks to his completion of the By Car program through OhioMeansJobs Lorain County and the LCCAA.

LCCAA supports OMJ clients by providing financial training, managing matching funds and offering one-on-one purchasing guidance. OMJ will match participants savings at a rate of $3 for every $1 saved. Only clients fully engaged with an OMJ case manager qualify for help.

Jackson is in good company. Six more people completed the financial literacy requirement at LCCAA earlier this month.

To find out if By Car is right for you, start by calling OMJ at 440-324-5244.
