On Racial Justice
The senseless killing of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and many other members of the black community is unacceptable. There is no room for racism in our society as it is a disease only we have the power to eradicate. Each of us has the responsibility to become a catalyst for change and ensure that every person is judged on their character and not the color of their skin.
We must take immediate action to improve the conditions that people of color are subject to day in and day out. St. Jean’s Credit Union values are centered on promoting diversity, improving the lives of our members, and people helping people.
We pledge to fight systematic racism by furthering our efforts to provide financial services and reach the underserved to foster true equality for all people.
We stand with our members, staff, and the communities in which we serve by recognizing that change must happen immediately.
