NCUA encourages CUs to complete voluntary diversity self-assessment

Federally insured credit unions, especially those with 100 or more employees, are encouraged to conduct and submit the annual Voluntary Credit Union Diversity Self-Assessment to NCUA’s Office of Minority and Women Inclusion before Dec. 31, 2018. Agency Board Chairman J. Mark McWatters reminded credit unions about the approaching deadline in a letter to credit unions yesterday.

The agency is encouraging credit unions to use the self-assessment as a source of diversity best practices and as a tool to assess and guide diversity efforts.

The recently updated self-assessment form, instructions for compelling it and several useful diversity-related tools and resources are available on the Credit Union Diversity webpage. To access the self-assessment form, click here.
