SALISBURY, MD – Sheri Ewing, Family Services Manager for Habitat for Humanity of Wicomico County, recently earned her National Association of Certified Credit Counselors (NACCC), financial health counselor certification. A financial health counselor helps clients suffering from financial distress by combining counseling techniques with financial empowerment skills to improve their current and future economic health.  “I embarked on this certification because a majority of homeowner and roof and repair applicants come to our office already in financial distress,” said Ewing. “I believe if we can help our applicants with their long-term financial health, the homeowners, as well as our Habitat affiliate, will benefit.”

Ewing joined Habitat for Humanity of Wicomico County in July of 2019. She is the mortgage loan originator and is responsible for interviewing and qualifying applicants for both the Homeowner program, and the Neighborhood Revitalization initiative–which encompasses the Roof and Repair; Aging in Place; and Brush with Kindness programs. Ewing manages one part-time Habitat employee and the affiliate’s social work interns.

Ewing is member of the Salisbury Soroptimist Club, and is the area coordinator for Medici, Inc., a Korean-based high school student exchange program. She and her family have hosted Korean students for the past six years. Ewing is married and shares seven children and two grandchildren with her husband, Steve.
