CTC Friday Conversation: "Hispanic Heritage Month" with AACUC
This CTC celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month through the lens of the credit union movement, honoring the theme "Unidos, Somos Mas" — Together, We Are More. Just as the cooperative model is built on the collective strength of its members, Hispanic Heritage Month reminds us that unity, shared purpose, and community are at the heart of who we are as a movement.
This session will explore how credit unions can better engage and serve the growing Hispanic community, expand access to affordable financial products and services, and cultivate culturally responsive membership strategies that reflect the rich diversity within our communities. We aim to strengthen the ties and generate synergies between credit unions and Hispanic-serving organizations to support one another and contribute to the building of a strong, diverse, and inclusive credit union movement. Because when we invest in every member, every family, and every community — "Unidos, Somos Mas" .
