Association Overview

The Credit Union Association of Rhode Island is a democratically controlled organization owned by its member credit unions. A board of directors, made up of 11 credit union individuals, each of whom are actively employed by a credit union or actively serving their credit union as a volunteer official, are elected by the membership. This body sets policy for the Association and directs the professional staff. A number of committees established in accordance with the Association by-laws deliberate on areas of importance to member credit unions. These committees then provide the board with valuable information and insight into the best course of action to pursue in each of these areas.

The Association is focused on helping its member credit unions meet the financial needs of the people of Rhode Island. Guided by its volunteer board of directors, the Association seeks to accomplish this mission by providing legislative and public advocacy, education and training, product development and operational support. The Association also is the primary means through which credit unions share resources and ideas in keeping with the cooperative nature of the credit union movement.
