About Us
Consumer Credit Counseling Services (CCCS) of Southern New England was formed in 1999 from the merger of the former CCCS affiliated agencies of Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. The organization’s purpose was to provide quality consumer education and counseling services to members of its local communities. Over the years, the use of credit increased dramatically and so did the need for nonprofit credit counseling services.
In 2005, CCCS of Southern New England joined with Money Management International (MMI) to meet the growing and changing needs of both consumers and creditors. Today, MMI is the largest nonprofit, full-service credit counseling agency in the United States.
