Services
Britepaths' services are designed to help individuals and families in Northern Virginia who are struggling to pay their bills in our expensive area. Often, they are working hard, but they live paycheck-to-paycheck. Any kind of unexpected expense, such as a car repair, rent hike or medical expenses, can throw them into a financial crisis.
Note Our Pandemic Changes: Britepaths and the Financial Empowerment Center at South County are offering most of our services virtually until further notice.
