In this episode of I Live Here Westchester, host Jim Jockle talks with Ashley Britton, Program Manager of the Mount Vernon Financial Empowerment Center
— a groundbreaking local initiative helping Westchester residents take control of their financial futures.

Ashley shares how the Legacy Planning Program is giving families the same tools and clarity once reserved for the wealthy — from creating wills and designating beneficiaries to tackling debt and building confidence. She discusses breaking generational barriers, bridging the wealth gap, and turning fear into financial freedom.
