What do you need?

Verified public listings. Each card says whether it is a bank, regulator, benefits agency, counseling, legal help or information resource. This is not financial, tax or legal advice, and a listing is not an endorsement or a promise of a loan, benefit or approval.

I need a bank or credit union

You’re getting help with: a bank account

The Village is still looking for a verified local organization that helps people open a bank account when ID, a phone, transportation or other barriers make that difficult. A listing of banks does not mean an account will be opened.

Call 211 to talk with a person

211 may be able to talk with you about local options.

What we know

FDIC #GetBanked

FDIC #GetBanked is information about opening a bank account. It is not a local person or office that will help you open one.

Information only. Each bank decides whether it can open an account.

Some of these may help when you go to open an account. Each bank sets its own rules.

This path is incomplete.

Community work needed
