Certified Credit Counseling with a Focus on Financial Education

Since 1993, Consolidated Credit has helped over 10.2 million people find relief from credit card debt to achieve real financial stability

Credit card debt problems are running rampant in the U.S. today. Americans owe more than $1.166 trillion, and we keep adding more every year. The truth is that most people aren’t taking on debt because they’re irresponsible. Most credit card debt comes from challenges like lack of income, emergency expenses, and out-of-pocket medical bills.

That’s why we believe that solving people’s debt challenges requires more than just a program that can help them become debt-free. True financial stability takes education and application, and that’s what we help our customers do. Consolidated Credit is one of the nation’s largest nonprofit credit counseling agencies and we’ve spent over a quarter of a century helping people find financial freedom.

Consolidated Credit’s mission: To assist families throughout the United States to end financial crises and solve money management issues through education and professional counseling.

“Without financial education, financial stability is just a dream,”

Gary Herman, President of consolidated credit
