Debt management plans (DMPs), a popular type of debt consolidation program, can help you get on track to pay off your unsecured debts. Often, a nonprofit credit counseling organization will set up and run the debt management plan, and act as an intermediary between you and your creditors.

Unlike a debt consolidation loan or balance transfer credit card, you don't have to open a new account or have good credit to qualify for a DMP. However, you can still save money, lower your monthly payment and get on a path toward paying off your debts.

One of the easiest, and the most effective, strategies is to save automatically. Automation makes it easy to stick to your plan and your promise to your future self. Start by deciding how much you can save every month. If you aren't sure, this  spending plan worksheet  can help you figure out how much you have, and what's already committed to bills and expenses. Even if you are saving a small amount, it's worth doing.

Out of all generations in the workplace, millennials are struggling the most when it comes to their finances, due to high student loan debt and lack of savings, according to a new study.

Thirty seven percent of millennials would not be able to come up with $2,000 in 30 days, compared to 34% of Gen X and 23% of baby boomers, according to the report by the TIAA Institute and the George Washington University's Global Financial Literacy Excellence Center (GFLEC). Millennials tend to rely more heavily on debt and engage more frequently in expensive short- and long-term money management behaviors to deal with financial shortfalls. They also display lower financial literacy than older working-age adults, the study finds.
