They affect the cost of credit we receive, where we live, insurance rates we pay – even the jobs we can get. By understanding the reporting and scoring process, your consumer rights, and responsibilities, how to recover from inaccuracies, and how to guard against identity theft, you can establish, maintain, and protect a strong credit history and good credit score.

Employee Assistance Program Webinars and Workshops
Stress caused by our political climate is extremely valid and understandable. According to a survey by the American Psychological Association, 68% of Americans report the “future of our nation” as a significant source of stress. This can affect both our everyday lives and our relationships.
If you are feeling a significant increase in stress, anxiety, fear or anger about politics, we encourage you to reach out to KGA. You and your household members have 24/7 access to counselors and coaches for emotional support. At My.KGALifeServices.com you will find information and self-directed tools to help manage stress. These services are confidential and provided at no cost to you.
