The findings of such &nbsp;research are published in reports that assist consumer advocates and &nbsp;policymakers as well as individual consumers. They provide an important &nbsp;basis for the policy positions and work of the organization.</li> <li>As an advocacy organization, CFA works to advance pro-consumer &nbsp;policies on a variety of issues before Congress, the White House, &nbsp;federal and state regulatory agencies, state legislatures, and the &nbsp;courts. We communicate and work with public officials to promote &nbsp;beneficial policies, oppose harmful ones, and ensure a balanced debate &nbsp;on issues important to consumers.</li> <li>As an education organization, CFA disseminates information on &nbsp;consumer issues to the public and news media, as well as to policymakers &nbsp;and other public interest advocates. To do so, we utilize reports, &nbsp;books, brochures, news releases, press conferences, a newsletter, &nbsp;conferences, forums, and this website. Of special importance are the &nbsp;on-line newsletter CFAnews Update, three annual conferences – Consumer &nbsp;Assembly, financial services conference, and food policy conference.</li> <li>As a service organization, CFA assists individuals and &nbsp;organizations. Our principal service to individuals is through the &nbsp;America Saves campaign which we organized in 2000 and have managed since &nbsp;then. Our services to organizations, with a special focus on CFA member &nbsp;groups, includes CFAnews Update, our three annual conferences, our &nbsp;State and Local Resource Center, our Consumer Cooperative Advisory &nbsp;Group, and our annual Awards Dinner that recognizes distinguished &nbsp;public, consumer, and media service.</li></ul></div>]]></description>
