Credit unions that are part of CUNA’s Member Activation Program (MAP), and those who want to learn more about MAP, can still register for Tuesday’s free webinar for an update on CUNA’s Campaign for Common-Sense Regulation, as well as other MAP resources. Registration is currently open, and the webinar is scheduled for 3 to 4:30 (ET).

MAP helps credit unions educate their employees or members about credit union issues and activates them to call on lawmakers through the use of customizable email templates and other tools.

The program has a notable history of success. Most recently, MAP Community Development Financial Institution-certified (CDFI) credit unions used it to successfully push their Members of Congress to fund the Treasury’s CDFI Fund through fiscal year 2017.

During the webinar, CUNA staff will provide an update on the campaign, and where action in Congress currently stands. It will also review MAP and the MAP toolkit, and credit unions will be invited to share success stories.
