The primary trade group for credit unions, Credit Union National Association, has a website with a simple "Find a Credit Union that is right for you" feature.  You can search by employer, geography and other characteristics.  Here is the link:  http://www.creditunion.coop/

Thank you so much.  I will check it out.  I did finally find one locally, but certainly would like to speak to more than one if possible.

Hello ellymae,

Since you were looking for a quick answer and I've just come across this post several months later I'm sure you've already taken care of this issue.

On the other hand, while you can still shop around for alternatives I can probably enlighten you. I was a Business Development Representative for a credit union for nearly 8 years before moving into HR. That means I worked with HR people from nearly 1300 employers to serve their needs.

One option you might consider is using different local credit unions for your different locations. It may sound like more work but your employees will appreciate the personal service alot more. therer are federally chartered CUs and state chartered CUs...there are also strictly employer sponsored CUs and there are community CUs (determining who can join).

If you would like to discuss options please let me know if I can be of assistance.

I have never used credit unions before, but for some reason I used to think that were not more like banks but like a more legal form of a company that lends money online and that it is highly recommended to stay away from them as well. Obviously I was wrong. I have really liked the idea of checking with the credit union association, I am sure that your state's authorities should definitely know something more specific about this service. Just check with them!
