A debt management service (DMS) in Illinois is a non-profit or for-profit organization that helps consumers to create and implement a debt repayment plan. DMSs typically work with consumers to consolidate their debts into a single monthly payment, often at a lower interest rate. This can make it easier for consumers to manage their debts and get out of debt faster.

DMSs also provide consumers with financial counseling and education. This can help consumers to understand their debt situation, develop a budget, and make changes to their spending habits. DMSs can also help consumers to negotiate with creditors and improve their credit scores.
