Press Kit

We welcome all forms of media communication. The media is of great help to us in educating the public on consumer credit issues. We, in turn, are a great resource for the media. This area provides the media with information on Credit.org and makes available our resources to aid in the development of specific, customized, or general reporting interviews and articles. Our national reputation as a highly respected agency adds credibility to any project in which we are involved. Our Chief Executive and other members of our staff are available for interviews even with limited notice.
