Applications are now being accepted for the 2012 AFCPE Military Spouse Fellowship for those interested in the Accredited

Financial Counselor program. This opportunity is sponsored by the FINRA Investor Education Foundation. Please share the press

release with your entire team and anyone else who may be interested!

While the AFC certification program offers outstanding education and opportunities, NMCRS does not require participation in

this program. NMCRS volunteers who are currently Spouse Fellow AFC candidates share that the AFC certification does not inte-

grate seamlessly into our Mission or Vision. We welcome AFC Candidates and AFC-qualified volunteers into our programs, how-

ever NMCRS training is still required for NMCRS caseworkers. This is a unique and challenging program and one which I en-

courage you to share with the widest possible audience of interested individuals. Cut and paste this website into your browser for
