18 CONSUMER FEDERATION OF AMERICA 2018 ANNUAL REPORT A key reason for the success of the Consumer Federation of America for over 50 years is the extraordinarily talented and diverse Board of Directors who provides guidance to CFA’s efforts. While CFA is indebted to all of its board members, in this report we are recognizing the long-standing service of Katrinka Smith Sloan. After 22 years as a member of CFA’s board, executive committee and its Secretary-Treasurer, she is stepping down. CFA thanks Katie for her outstanding guidance, mentorship and dedication to the efforts of the Federation.
