Credit Union National Association

Founded in 1934, the Credit Union National Association (CUNA) served as the primary advocacy and professional development organization for both state and federally chartered credit unions across the United States. Its mission was to support, protect, unify, and advance the credit union movement. CUNA provided a wide range of services to its members, including federal and state-level advocacy, compliance resources, economic research, networking events, and professional training. In a historic move to unify the industry's voice, CUNA merged with NAFCU to officially launch "America's Credit Unions" on January 1, 2024, which now continues the mission of representing the nation's credit unions and their members.
