Take the credit!

To promote the Homeowners’ Tax Credit, we created a PSA featuring Cynthia the Squirrel and friends.

Whether you own and live in a house, apartment, or tree, you should be checking each year to see if you are eligible for the Homeowners’ Tax Credit!


Grading Maryland Banks

We worked with Attorney General Brian Frosh’s office to highlight the need for age-friendly banking products for older adults.

We created a bank “report card,” grading Baltimore banks on the services they offer to seniors in our communities.


About MCRC

In 2014, Director of the Montgomery County Office of Consumer Protection Eric Friedman spoke with MCRC Executive Director Marceline White about the work at our organization.

While some years have passed since this video was made, it still offers a relevant look into our work and mission at the Coalition.


Driven to defraud

Driven to Defraud is MCRC's powerful documentary film about auto sales fraud. The film shows you how “yo-yo” sales and other leading auto sales scams work through the eyes of consumers, consumer advocates and honest car dealers working to stop the fraud.

It also gives you good tips on how to make sure you get a good deal on your next car. Check it out and spread the word!

stealing trust

In 2011, MCRC wanted a film that spoke to the problem of consumer fraud in three separate areas: debt settlement, mortgages and home improvement.

Using interviews to tell the story, Stealing Trust is a powerful look at the devastating impact illegal foreclosures and other predatory financial practices have had on families and vulnerable consumers across Maryland.
