ICUL Member Credit Unions Asked to Complete COVID-19 Response Survey
Yesterday, CEOs of ICUL member credit unions received an email asking them to complete a survey regarding their credit unions' responses to COVID-19.

Survey data will be combined to share with lawmakers how Iowa credit unions are improving the financial lives of Iowans. As financial first responders, credit unions are providing critical services to Iowans experiencing pandemic-related hardships, and we want to share that data

If your credit union did not receive a survey link, please contact PolicyWorks Iowa Government Affairs Manager Gracie Brandsgard at 515.224.8956.
