Welcome to the Consumers Alliance of the Piedmont

Formed in 2008, Funeral Consumers Alliance of the Piedmont is one of the newest of about 100 Funeral Consumers Alliance chapters across the United States. We are a grassroots, all volunteer, 501(c)(3) nonprofit focused on funeral consumer education and advocacy. Our mission is "to work together as informed consumers for after-death arrangements that embrace our needs, preferences and rights." If you think of us as sort of all-volunteer-staffed Consumer Reports focused entirely on the local funeral industry, you have a pretty good sense of who we are!

In our day-to-day work, we field telephone inquiries from consumers, social workers, the news media and others, We host workshops and other events to educate funeral consumers. We advocate for families in the N.C. General Assembly. We provide speakers on consumer matters to area groups and organizations.

We invite you to join us!
