Press Room

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 to the media. That's why we've included the Press Room on our website.

View Press Releases and Media Advisories

This area provides the media with information on SPRINGBOARD® and makes available our resources to assist 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 advance notice.

We have working arrangements with nationally recognized "think tank" organizations for the mutual exchange of information and analysis. We are well equipped to provide specific and customized reporting on better money management, industry information, statistics, housing issues, and seasonal financial topics affecting today's consumer. We are often asked to help develop theme pieces with various media organizations. We are viewed as experts at providing information on ways to live on a budget, save money, and overcome financial crisis.

From the Press Room you can request a Media Kit, read some of our previous press releases, or review our list of available seminars (we create customized seminars at the request of employers and other nonprofit organizations.)

This material can be incorporated into any media report or article.
