California Department of Consumer Affairs

California Department of Consumer Affairs (DCA) is a department within the California Business, Consumer Services, and Housing Agency. It protects the best interests of California consumers by managing the licensing of all professionals in California whose roles impact the health and safety of California consumers. This includes everything from physicians, architects, and even barbers. The DCA maintains online databases so that the license status of all such professionals can be verified.[1]
