ORLANDO, Fla., April 12, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- InCharge Education Foundation ("InCharge"), one of the nation's leading nonprofit organizations devoted to personal financial literacy, will be showcasing its Pre-Filing Credit Counseling, Pre-Discharge Debtor Education courses and its services to consumer bankruptcy attorneys at the 19th Annual Convention of the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys (NACBA) in Washington, D.C., April 13-17, 2011.

CNN reported on April 4, 2011, "The number of filings in the first three months of 2011 dropped to 340,012, down from 363,215 filings recorded in the first quarter of 2010, according to data from the American Bankruptcy Institute and the National Bankruptcy Research Center."

"The numbers have improved slightly but many consumers are still facing economic struggles and bankruptcy is still very much a reality for many consumers," said Beth Mason, InCharge's Director of Outreach Programs for Bankruptcy Services.  "The Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005, or BAPCPA, requires debtors to complete both Pre-Filing Credit Counseling and Pre-Discharge Debtor Education courses, of which InCharge has provided over 750,000 since 2006."

Attorneys and anyone seeking a reliable and professional source for consumer bankruptcy courses are encouraged to visit the InCharge booth at this event.
