About Us

Jefferson County Teachers' Credit Union is a not-for-profit, democratically controlled, financial cooperative, which exists solely to provide safe, cost-efficient and personal financial services to its members. Like all credit unions, a Board of Directors is democratically elected and serves on a voluntary basis. Board members represent the membership. They listen to what you want and then set policies and direction for the credit union.

Jefferson County Teachers' Credit Union was founded in 1939. Today, we have over 15,700 members and over 88 million in assets.

At the credit union, you are a member and part owner. Your ideas play an integral role in the credit union's structure. Members have a say in how the credit union is operated and their suggestions are always welcomed. Since the credit union has no outside shareholders, only members benefit from Jefferson County Teachers' Credit Union earnings through full financial services, competitive rates and affordable loans. These principles are what the credit union was founded upon. They also help define the Jefferson County Teachers' Credit Union mission statement.
