CARE PROGRAM RELAUNCHES WEBSITE TO PROVIDE INVALUABLE FINANCIAL LITERACY RESOURCES January 20, 2012, Alexandria, Va.— The Credit Abuse Resistance Education (CARE) program relaunched its website providing students, parents, educators and insolvency professionals with a comprehensive and easy to navigate financial literacy resource. CARE is an initiative that makes experienced members of the bankruptcy community available to teach the importance of financial education. The relaunched CARE website focuses on four main constituencies: students, educators, parents and bankruptcy professional volunteers. The “Student” section includes information on student loans, paying for college, and general financial tips on a broad range of topics. Parents will find a section of the site that includes information on teaching kids about the financial facts of life. Educators will have access to a video and lesson plan for teachers. The “Professionals” section of the site allows bankruptcy professionals to find an existing CARE program in their community through a user-friendly locator map, and information on starting a program in their area.

Ninfo II to educate high school and college students on the responsible use of credit and other fundamentals of financial literacy. Now entering its eleventh year, the CARE program boasts a presence in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. ### ABI is the largest multi-disciplinary, nonpartisan organization dedicated to research and education on matters related to insolvency.
