CCCS Debt Management Program: Making Repayment Easier

Are you struggling with high debt balances with high interest rates? Trying to make progress on payments can make you feel like you’re drowning. It’s only natural to search for a life preserver.

The CCCS Debt Management Program (DMP) can be that life preserver! We can help alleviate the burden by serving as a liaison between you and your creditors. Through this partnership, we will develop a repayment plan that works for all parties and makes your life easier!

What’s Included in This Program?

If you’re interested in the DMP, you can come in for a free, no-risk consultation. One of our counselors will sit down with you to get to know your financial situation. Then we will estimate how long it will take to repay the debt through a debt management plan. Typically, this will take four or five years.

We will then negotiate with your creditors to make your repayment plan as convenient for you as possible. Possible concessions from creditors include lower interest rates, waived fees and bringing accounts current.

We can also consolidate your debt payments so that you only make one payment per month. You can do this by cashier’s check, money order or automatic withdrawal from your checking or savings account.

Once you start making payments, we will provide you with periodic progress reports. We will also be here to help if you run into any problems or have any questions along the way.

How Much Does CCCS Debt Management Cost?

As a not-for-profit organization, we work at keeping fees to a minimum. However, there are some fees associate with the debt management program:
