Adeline and Demus have been long term affiliates with WSCAT. Since 2017, each of them have taken almost every class WSCAT has to offer including financial education, homeownership education, and small business education. They have also participated in the IDA programs for business, home renovation, and vehicles. 

Hayden first heard about the IDA program while participating in the financial education class for Native seniors at Madras High School. He was about to graduate and needed a car to get back and forth to college.

Juanita first became involved with WSCAT in 2019, when she needed a new car. Since then, she has enrolled in an IDA to pay down her debt.

Sierra was talking to the manager of Twisted Teepee one day, when she was told about the IDA program. She needed transportation to take her son to elementary school and applied for the IDA program.
