What is a Debt Management Program (DMP)?
A Debt Management Program, is in a sense, a debt consolidation program where you can make one payment a month to CCCS and we disburse payments to your creditors for you. This is a structured program whereby CCCS acts as a liaison between you and your creditors; and, you agree not to incur any additional debt to maintain cooperation from the creditors. Most creditors reduce interest, stop late and over-limit fees and agree to monthly payments through CCCS.
