Consumer Action (www.consumer-action.org) is a national non-profit consumer education and advocacy organization founded in San Francisco in 1971. The organization’s hallmark is its free multilingual consumer education materials distributed through a national network of 10,000-plus non-profit and community-based agencies. In addition Consumer Action serves consumers and its members nationwide by advancing consumer rights, referring consumers to complaint-handling agencies and training community group staff on the effective use of its educational materials. All Consumer Action publications are available on its web site.

MoneyWi$e (www.money-wise.org), a national financial literacy partnership of Consumer Action and Capital One, is the first program of its kind to combine free, multilingual financial education materials, curricula and teaching aids with regional meetings and roundtables to train community-based organization staff with the most effective information and tools to reach the broadest spectrum of consumers at all income levels.
