CU DEI Collective launches new website

April 15, 2021
DEICollective

The CU CEI Collective, an organization devoted to advancing Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) in the credit union industry, launched its new website Thursday. The updated website is designed to build a collection of DEI resources and opportunities available to all members and supporters of the credit union movement.

The intent of the website is to create a space where credit unions can act together as a system to advance DEI. It will be a space to share various perspectives, learn by being curious, and encourage action towards creating credit unions that value diversity and strive for creating a deep sense of belonging.

The CU DEI Collective also encourages organizations to complete the DEI Practices Survey conducted by Filene Research Institute. The survey will provide much needed, meaningful benchmark DEI data specific to the credit union space.

As April is Diversity Awareness month, it is important to reflect upon why the collective was formed and provide an update on where the organization is today.

The underlying belief of the CU DEI Collective is that diversity, equity, and inclusion are fundamental to a vibrant, relevant, and growing Credit Union Movement. DEI is also good business and investing in it will result in more people finding a place where belonging means financial wellbeing.

The collective’s commitment to honor and advance the 8th cooperative principle continues to strengthen with each organization that signs its pledge to support this effort.

As the one-year anniversary of George Floyd’s death approaches, the collective is firmly committed to stand against racism and other forms of oppression.

The collective is also devoted to understanding and addressing the root causes of problems facing our communities, especially when our cooperative business model promotes belonging and inclusion as a central component of our cooperative principles.
