The California and Nevada Youth Involvement Network (CNYIN), organized in 1992, promotes financial education, credit union philosophy, and credit union products and services to young people in California and Nevada. CNYIN Members have joined to help their credit unions develop or maintain various ongoing youth programs. The CNYIN strongly believes that today's children are tomorrow's loyal credit union members, employees, and volunteers. Credit unions have a unique opportunity to affect not only the future of credit unions, but also the future economic well being of the nation through educational efforts that produce financially literate adults.
- The CNYIN conducts quarterly Webinars (FREE to CNYIN members) to educate credit union professionals, teachers and others on financial literacy issues that effect all of us.
- CNYIN members participate in youth marketing; make classroom presentations; present programs at chapter meetings and League educational conferences; distribute credit union information to high school and college career centers; and attend CNYIN Roundtables.
- Regional Roundtables are scheduled throughout the state to exchange ideas related to youth marketing and education.
- The CNYIN developed a working relationship with the California Jump$tart Coalition, as well as with the Children's Miracle Network and the National Endowment for Financial Education (NEFE).
- The California and Nevada Youth Involvement Board (CNYIB) is committed to increasing CNYIN youth educational classroom presentations and increasing the state's ranking with the National Youth Involvement Board.
