Americans for Fairness in Lending
Americans for Fairness in Lending (AFFIL) is a non-profit organization designed to draw attention to what it calls abuses by the lending industry in America. AFFIL’s stated goal is government regulation of the lending industry to protect American consumers from financial products which deplete assets and can lead to bankruptcy and foreclosure.
