CUNA’s Prather named ‘Top Twenty in 20’ for advocacy

The Advocacy Association has selected CUNA State Director of Grassroots Programs Kristen Prather as one of this year’s Top Twenty in 20 in advocacy professionals. The award recognizes the best and brightest practitioners in the advocacy community.

“Kristen is a valuable part of our political affairs team, and we’re proud her work overseeing our grassroots efforts at the state and national level has been recognized,” said Richard Gose, CUNA chief political officer. “Her efforts have helped get the word out about many of our campaigns that have benefitted credit union members by bringing attention to important issues, including the passage of S. 2155, Stop the Data Breaches and Don’t Tax My Credit Union.”

Prather, who has been with CUNA since 2008, was featured in CQ Roll Call’s Oct. 6 edition with a full-page ad recognizing the inaugural class of awardees. Awardees were honored during a virtual event Oct. 20.
