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
