Mission Statement

The Minnesota Family Involvement Council’s (FIC’s)
mission is to enhance the future of the credit union movement
by providing financial awareness solutions.

Start 2 Go Programs

The purpose of the Start 2 Go program is to help credit unions with kids, teen or senior clubs.

In the Fall 2006, we introduced the Start 2 Go program, aimed at helping one credit union at a time. In addition to its 2010 workshop, the FIC has helped three credit unions launch programs.

On an annual basis, the FIC sends out an informational brochure to credit unions. Credit unions complete the form for a chance to enter into a random drawing to receive resources and personal assistance from FIC members to help develop a club.
