overview
Core Principles
At the core of the Credit Union’s Financial Fitness are the basic principles that Law Enforcement Officers learn when you join the force and continue to hone throughout your careers: maintain control and preserve options. By directly correlating the basic tenets of financial education with the foundation of your day-to-day training, the Credit Union aims to ingrain sound financial lessons that turn into purposeful everyday habits.

Financial Planning and Education Center
Continuing Education is a key theme at the Credit Union and the reason behind our Financial Planning and Education Center, which was developed to provide free and confidential financial consulting services, educational programming, and value-added resources designed to educate and empower our members on your journey toward economic freedom.
While the Financial Planning and Education Center has expanded over the years, our objective remains the same: every product and service that we offer through the Financial Planning and Education Center is designed to create an opportunity for our members to gain knowledge, choices, and power as a financial consumer. As ever, we are committed to providing you with the information and financial tools you need and the answers you seek in a safe and confidential professional setting.
