The Credit Union Association of New Mexico (CUANM) is proud to announce a partnership with the Defense Credit Union Council (DCUC) to help credit unions support their veteran and first responder members and staff. The two organizations will collaborate and create CUheroes, an employee resource group dedicated to serving the veterans and first responders of NM’s credit union industry.

"New Mexico is lucky to count with a high percentage of current and former military population. The Credit Union Association of New Mexico is committed to helping credit unions meet the needs of the heroes they serve," said Juan E. Fernández Ceballos, president/CEO of CUANM. "CUheroes will launch in the fall of 2022 and is one of CUANM’s association-supported, employee-led employee resource groups. Our employee resource groups help credit union professionals engage, network, and learn from each other.”

“DCUC is proud to partner with the Credit Union Association of New Mexico to bring more resources to the military and veteran community,” said Anthony Hernandez, DCUC president/CEO. “It is by working together that we can have the largest impact on the credit union industry, which is essential to the financial health and well-being of the men and women that have served our country.”
