"A coalition
providing free tax preparation and awareness to qualifying
families to increase economic independence and improve the
quality of life in the Paso del Norte Region."
The Coalition for Family
Economic Progress (CFEP) is an alliance of more than 21 private,
public, and non-profit organizations that have been dedicated to
the economic empowerment of working families in the greater El
Paso area since 2006. CFEP’s success lies in helping
low-to-moderate income families join the economic mainstream by
promoting the effective use of their Earned Income and Child Tax
credits in long-term asset development. CFEP’s VITA program has
helped thousands of area families by offering free tax-related
assistance such as:
Through these services families receive more
of their refunds instead of paying preparation fees and loan
fees. The 2012 VITA campaign offered 19 free tax preparation
sites. CFEP provides services to
low/moderate income individuals and families who live within the border community of El Paso County,
far west Texas, and parts of southern New Mexico. El Paso Credit Union
HOAP, Inc (AHCUSO)serves as the lead partner and fiscal agent to
the coalition. You can learn more about the members of our coalition by clicking on their logos at the bottom of this page.
