Information for State of California Employees - Financial assistance if paychecks are reduced

In the past, many state-chartered credit unions and banks have offered special assistance to State employees whose paychecks were affected by delays in passing a budget. This year, the following institutions have indicated they would make such assistance available to members:

  • Golden 1 Credit Union
  • Schools Credit Union
  • Arrowhead Credit Union
  • First U.S. Community Credit Union
  • California Community Credit Union
  • California Bear Credit Union

We encourage you to contact your own financial institution for details on their assistance programs.
