Celebrating Consumer Champions
This year we will be “Celebrating Consumer Champions” at Consumer Action’s Annual Awards Reception, marking our 45th anniversary. This year's event brings much deserved attention to the efforts of dedicated and committed advocates who, through their leadership, have forged significant change for consumers. Our 2016 honorees exemplify this theme: Their efforts have benefited hundreds of thousands of consumers, if not more, by enforcing laws, informing people of changes in the marketplace and fighting for improved consumer protections. Our awardees are true “Consumer Champions”!
Please join us on Oct. 18 in Washington, DC to mark Consumer Action’s tradition of working in partnership with all marketplace participants and to honor our 2016 Consumer Excellence awardees:
- Ken Harney, author of “The Nation’s Housing” column, syndicated by The Washington Post Writers Group and carried by newspapers nationwide;
- National Fair Housing Alliance, the only national organization dedicated solely to ending housing discrimination; and
- Richard Cordray, director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, who has led the Bureau’s educational, supervisory and enforcement efforts since 2012.
