(Beaver County, PA) It was recently announced that the Alliance for Consumer Protection Beaver County, or ACP, for short, has finished its no-cost consumer assistance to Beaver County after fifty years. According to a release from officials, growing operational expenses and the need for rent-free office space dictated the closure of that agency. 1975 was when the ACP got founded because of a community action project lead by a group of students from Penn State Beaver who discovered a need for Beaver County to try to get consumer protection services.
