Community Reinvestment ActThe Community Reinvestment Act is intended to encourage banks to help meet the credit needs of their communities, including low- and moderate-income neighborhoods. CRA allows us the opportunity to participate during bank merger hearings to push public policy in the right direction and to raise concerns with the merging banks' practices that can cause harm to our community

our early 6 years were all about Community Reinvestment Act challenges to Delaware Financial Institutions.
Today, we continue our work in consumer finance advocacy, restructured our credit and housing clinics to fall under Money School, and re-imagined Non-profit Law which includes the FREE Low Income Tax Clinic.
Stepping Stones Community Federal Credit Union is an independent, federally chartered and insured financial institution supported by team DCRAC!

Board & Sponsors
Our relationship with Delaware banks reaches back 30 years, and while rooted in controversy, it has blossomed into a partnership that we have come to value and rely upon. We have aged well together. We want to thank our banking partners for their financial support of our programs. Over the years, Delaware Foundations, local, county, state and federal governments have been key contributors as have individuals who made significant cash contributions.
