The Funeral Consumers Alliance of Maryland and Environs (FCAME) is the volunteer-run regional chapter of a national non-profit consumer education and advocacy organization, the Funeral Consumers Alliance (FCA). We advocate for fair practices in the funeral industry through national and state legislation and regulation. The information we provide enables individuals to make more informed choices about funerals, cremations and other options for after-death services. The Funeral Consumers Alliance of Maryland and Environs serves residents in Maryland, the District of Columbia and Delaware. We welcome all individuals regardless of religious beliefs or affiliation, race, national origin, gender or other classification.
