She is currently the Vice Chair of HCFCU’s supervisory committee, a role she’s held since 2021.

    Lee Minor joins HCFCU’s supervisory committee, the group responsible for ensuring HCFCU’s leaders meet reporting objectives and establish procedures to safeguard members’ assets. Minor was an account executive at Harland Clarke for 24 years, where he provided HCFCU with services in ID theft protection, supplemental Call Center services, email marketing, and loan approvals.
