We provide free ongoing counseling and education to anyone interested in learning how to manage their debts while maintaining a dignified lifestyle. Our Certified Credit Counselors will offer you a free, no obligation Debt Analysis.  You and your counselor will develop a realistic budget and spending plan tailored to your specific needs and circumstances. You will be presented with alternatives to help you manage your debt, which may include our debt consolidation Debt Management Program. If you enroll in our Debt Management Program, the interest rates on your credit cards and other unsecured debts will be lowered significantly. This means much more of your monthly payment is applied to the principle instead of paying off the high interest fees, and you will get out of debt much more quickly. Also, the Debt Management Plan allows you to consolidate your existing unsecured debts by combining them into one convenient monthly payment.

Consumers usually benefit much more from our Debt Management Plan than from getting a Home equity loan, debt consolidation loan or personal loan. Why?

  • First of all, our Debt Management Program is not a loan. If you get any type of loan to pay off your debts, you are not getting rid of your debt, you would just be exchanging one form of debt for another.  Instead, the Debt Management Program is not a loan or line of credit, it is a way to pay down your debt.
  • Second, you do not need to be a Home-owner in order to join
  • Third, there are no lengthy loan applications to be completed.
  • Fourth, with our DMP, you receive ongoing education to help you understand how to take control of your finances and avoid getting into debt in the future.

In many cases, our debt consolidation Debt Management Program is a viable alternative to bankruptcy. Joining our Debt Management Program will provide you with peace of mind, because harassing phone calls from most creditors will cease after the re-aging process. Also, you can feel proud that you are responsibly paying down your debt rather than allowing it to overwhelm you.

Whichever path is right for you, our Certified Credit Counselors will be there to help you every step of the way.

We invite you to call one of our Certified Credit Counselors at (toll-free) 1.888.354.6332 to discuss your particular situation. The call is free and there is absolutely no obligation.
