institutions often turn to companies like
D&A to deal with missed payments and

will go into post-secondary schools to give
seminars and offer some tools that will
help graduating students make their pay-

debt can’t be avoided, it can be success-
fully managed, Cabral said.
For those who just don’t know where to

right track. “Covering this hole and creating
another one doesn’t help the individual,”
Cabral explained. “If you have the means
to pay, let’s work something out and get
your financial situation back in line.”
