Through its education and awareness effort, the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs seeks to empower consumers to make smart decisions and avoid being defrauded. The Division provides speakers, free of charge, to diverse groups including high school clubs and classes; parent-teacher organizations; senior citizens groups, religious organizations, civic groups, and others. Topics are tailored to meet the specific audience's needs. Current and past topics include Credit Repair, Identity Theft, the Senior Fraud Education and Prevention (FEDUP) Program, Hiring a Contractor, and Selling Precious Metals.
