CARE is a financial education outreach program within the American Bankruptcy Institute that aims to help young adults understand responsible credit use and the potential consequences of credit card abuse. Through its work in the consumer services sector, it provides educational programs and materials designed to promote informed credit decisions. Based in Alexandria, Virginia, CARE coordinates resources to train volunteers and deliver presentations to schools and youth organizations. The organization focuses on practical guidance to support prudent credit management among its target audience. Its primary audience comprises young adults and related youth communities seeking clearer understanding of credit and how to avoid common financial pitfalls. In 2021, CARE launched a Back to School Campaign to fund the development of resources, expand volunteer training, and extend its reach with free presentations to schools and youth groups.
