Bowens' plans for the CU include growing the services to meet the needs of its current membership and to reach new members by reaching out to the youth market.
"We are going to re-establish the youth credit union to stimulate savings among our youth," said Bowen. "We have to re-energize our youth program and identity new and creative ways to teach young people how to save for their futures. It's not enough to only serve the adults, we must reach everyone in the family, which includes educating the youngest members."
