Opportunity for All: Financial Inclusion for a Resilient Future
Our theme for 2027, Opportunity for All: Financial Inclusion for a Resilient Future, reflects our movement’s ability to meet this moment's challenges. Community development credit unions are focused on building a financial system that works for everyone. From advancing homeownership and small business opportunity to spurring clean energy adoption, our movement is building stronger, more resilient communities.
Meet Our 2027 Host Credit Unions
Who Should Attend?
Credit union staff and leadership, community development professionals, impact investors, philanthropy, and everyone interested in how we can work together to create opportunity for all and advance financial inclusion for a resilient future.
At the conference, we'll explore four key ways that community development credit unions and allied organizations are addressing the affordability crisis, advancing community resilience, and building an equitable, cooperative financial system.
Turning Homeownership Dreams into Reality
Homeownership, a key tool for building generational wealth, is out of reach for many people. But credit unions are paving the way for their members to achieve their dreams of homeownership through innovative first-time homebuyer programs and partnerships with non-profits and community land trusts that expand access to homeownership. Learn how credit unions are creating opportunity, overcoming barriers, and driving lasting impact through inclusive, mission-driven mortgage programs.
Resiliency through Affordable Clean Energy Access
Credit unions have the unique opportunity to bring affordable energy solutions to their communities and help their communities be more disaster resilient. Learn how to build lending programs to drive clean energy adoption that helps members save money on rising energy bills while supporting good paying jobs and healthier air. Be inspired by credit unions that stood with their communities when disasters struck and leave with concrete ideas for how to better prepare for and respond to the ever-increasing number of weather-related disasters around the country.
A Financial System that Includes Everyone
The financial inclusion work shared at Inclusiv Conference 2027 will inspire even the most dedicated community development professionals to deepen their credit unions’ commitment to financial inclusion. Explore proven strategies for engaging unbanked and underbanked communities and deep dives on impactful asset building programs and inclusive lending practices. Learn from peers how to deepen community partnerships to promote financial health and asset building opportunities.
Strong Small Businesses Boost Local Economies
Small businesses create jobs and build local wealth, but many small business owners are underserved by mainstream financial institutions. Learn how to fill this gap and build a stronger local economy through small business lending. Hear from peers who are spurring economic development and overcoming the regulatory and operational barriers to small business lending, and explore the federal, state and private supports available to small business lenders.
