Celebrating Diversity: Patriot Federal Credit Union’s Commitment to Inclusivity
May 20, 2024
Patriot Federal Credit Union reaffirms its dedication to serving the diverse needs of its community by announcing its designation as a Juntos Avanzamos (Hoon-tohs Avan-za-mos) credit union. Juntos Avanzamos, which stands for “Together We Advance” is a designation for credit unions committed to serving and empowering Hispanic and Immigrant consumers. This milestone underscores Patriot’s unwavering commitment to inclusivity and accessibility in banking.
Patriot earned its designation by implementing several initiatives to ensure that all members have equal access to financial services and resources:
- Language Accessibility: We understand that effective communication is key to building trust and fostering meaningful relationships. That’s why we’ve partnered with LanguageLine Solutions to ensure that language barriers never stand in the way of accessing our services. Whether you prefer English, Spanish, or another language, our dedicated team is here to assist you every step of the way.
- Welcoming ITIN Holders: We believe that everyone deserves access to essential financial services, regardless of their citizenship status. That’s why we proudly accept Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers (ITINs) for membership and loan applications. Your path to financial stability starts here, no matter your immigration status.
- Financial Literacy Workshops: Knowledge is power, and we’re committed to equipping our members with the tools they need to make informed financial decisions. That’s why we offer financial literacy workshops in Spanish, providing valuable insights and practical tips to help you build a brighter financial future for yourself and your family.
- Zogo: Learning about personal finance should be engaging and accessible to all. That’s why we’re excited to offer Zogo, a fun and interactive financial education app, in Spanish. Explore a wide range of topics, earn rewards for completing modules, and take control of your financial education in the language of your choice.
- Bilingual Website: Our commitment to inclusivity extends to every aspect of our online presence. Our bilingual website ensures that all members of our community can easily access information about our products, services, and resources in the language they’re most comfortable with.
At Patriot Federal Credit Union, diversity is not just celebrated – it’s embraced. Join us on our journey to empower individuals and families from all walks of life to achieve financial success. Together, we can build a stronger, more inclusive community for generations to come.
