Financial Inclusion in Focus: From Vision to Reality
The National Federation of Community Development Credit Unions invites you to join us at our Annual Conference, Financial Inclusion in Focus: From Vision to Reality, from May 14-16, 2014 in Detroit, Michigan. The Federation and its members will be celebrating 40 years of helping people and communities achieve financial independence through credit unions.
We are excited to announce one of our keynote speakers, Michael S. Barr, a key architect of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and former US Department of the Treasury's Assistant Secretary for Financial Institutions.
