Information for Financial Caregivers

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has released the first new state-specific guides for financial caregivers—to help educate people about the process of managing someone else’s money.

Virginia Attorney General Mark Herring says the guides provide caregivers with critical information on how to get started, how to prevent scams and financial exploitation, and how to fulfill their duties.

The Attorney General’s Office and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s Officer for Older Americans will help organizations distribute the guides.  Here's a link to free, hard copies of the information.
