Ensuring North Carolinians Know Their Consumer Rights

We're Here For
The Consumers of North Carolina!

Since 1968, we’ve proudly dedicated ourselves to informing and educating the people of North Carolina about their rights as consumers. Our mission is rooted in the belief that knowledge is power—and that well-informed consumers are the foundation of a fair and thriving marketplace.

Every day, we work to protect North Carolina residents from fraud, deception, and unfair business practices. Whether it’s helping someone understand their rights under the law, offering guidance on avoiding scams, or standing up against unethical behavior in the marketplace, we’re here to make sure your voice is heard and your interests are protected.

We believe that when consumers are empowered with accurate information, they can make better choices, not only for themselves, but for their families, their communities, and the state as a whole. A fair marketplace isn’t just good for individuals—it’s essential for a strong economy and a safe society.

Join us in advancing our mission. Together, we can promote consumer awareness, support consumer education, and strengthen consumer protection across North Carolina.
