About RethinkingDebt.org
Forty years of nonprofit consumer credit counseling and
financial education services
The history of our organization
began over 40 years ago in Rochester, New York. In the early
1970's, the use of credit cards became a significant
part of the American way of life. Unfortunately, many people got
into financial trouble by borrowing too much. Our local
franchise, Consumer Credit Counseling
Service of Rochester, emerged in 1970 to focus on the
financial wellness of families and individuals. We
offered credit
counseling and financial education services
directly to consumers.
Our Objective Remains the Same
Our objective is to educate and
empower individuals and families to take control of their
financial lives. As a member of the National
Foundation for Credit Counseling, we exemplify the highest
standards of professionalism in nonprofit consumer credit
counseling and financial education. We
embrace strict, high quality operating standards that afford us the
privilege of being licensed by the NYS Department of
Financial Services, and we are nationally accredited by the Council on Accreditation. You
can rely on our long track record for providing reliable and
high quality consumer credit
counseling and financial
education services.
