As Police Officers, you know full well what it means to rely on your partner.  When you function as a team, you are stronger and more productive than you would otherwise be on your own.

 

If you are really fortunate, your partnership extends beyond just the person sitting next to you in the squad.  You certainly need a great team around you at all times if you are going to achieve consistent results.

 

As your credit union, we understand this concept and we are proud that you have chosen us as your financial partner.  We don't claim to understand what it is like to be a Police Officer, but we are experts at understanding the financial needs of Police Officers and all of the employees of your credit union have chosen to make a career out of assisting each and every one of you so that you may realize your life's goals.

 

Much as you continue to face tough and uncertain times, your credit union continues to navigate through turbulent and confusing economic times.  Yet, together, we have created a credit union that is strong and vibrant, as evidenced by the outstanding year that we enjoyed in 2016.

 

In some ways, it was an all-time record year.  We achieved all of our main goals and objectives, while expanding our reach and creating the basis for steady and responsible growth going forward.  We certainly would not have reached these heights without your continued support and, for that, we thank you!

 

Keep an eye out for new products, special rates, and the stellar service that you deserve as we head into 2017 and please remember that we stand with you and we always will.

 

My name is Akymmia Sutton and I am a Call Center Representative. I have been with the credit union for nearly a year and a half.

My daily duties include speaking with members regarding their personal share or checking accounts, as well as keeping them updated on new offers and promotions, such as balance transfers, Skip-A-Pay, interest rates, etc. I ensure members have all the information they need to make the best financial decisions for themselves and their families, and I work hard to assist each member to the best of my ability.

 

I went to Monmouth College, a private liberal arts college, where I majored in communication with a minor in women studies. Upon graduating in 2013, I was recruited by ISAC (Illinois Student Assistant Commission) to be a financial aid specialist. Following that one-year stint, I worked for ComEd in their marketing department, as well as the Chicago Transit Authority as a bus operator. I joined the credit union in 2015.

My hobbies include spending time with my family, reading books, traveling, shopping, and makeup. I love to play volleyball, and my favorite sports team is the Chicago Bulls. One day I'm going to open up a housing complex for the homeless so they can have shelter while trying to find a job and make a better living for themselves.

 

My favorite thing about working for the credit union is being able to help and interact with the members as well as my co-workers.
