Community development credit unions are the embodiment of our conference theme, Transformation with Purpose, given their commitment to financial inclusion. They help their members build wealth and support thriving communities by creating opportunities for people to access homeownership, build small businesses, and adopt clean energy and energy efficient technologies. The credit union movement is at a pivotal moment, and leaders including NCUA Board Chair [once confirmed] Kyle Hauptman, Ohio Credit Union League President Paul Mercer, Michigan Credit Union League CEO Patty Corkery and TBD will share local and national perspectives on CDCUs’ role in the community development ecosystem and opportunities for our movement to expand and deepen its impact.
