WASHINGTON – CUNA President and CEO Dan Mica reiterated the organization's commitment to financial literacy before the U.S. Treasury Department's Financial Literacy and Education Commission May 15.
"CUNA and credit unions have both a traditional and historical commitment to developing greater financial interest among their members. In fact, financial education, and cultivating financial literacy, are parts of the culture of credit unions," Mica told the group.
He noted that CUNA and member credit unions have a partnership with the National Endowment for Financial Education, in offering the High School Financial Planning Program since 2000, to more than 400,000 high school seniors in more than 2,000 high schools nationwide.
