Consumer Education provided by federal agencies aims to empower individuals with knowledge and tools to make informed decisions about goods and services, understand their rights, and protect themselves from fraud and exploitation. Agencies like the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) offer resources and guidance on various topics, including financial literacy, product safety, and fair marketplace practices. Through educational materials, workshops, and online resources, these agencies help consumers navigate complex issues such as credit management, identity theft, and deceptive marketing practices. The goal is to foster a well-informed public that can effectively advocate for their interests and safeguard their financial well-being.
