PNC Bank supports ABLEnow as an account custodian. One of the largest diversified financial services institutions in the United States, PNC is committed to the financial inclusion of individuals with disabilities. One way it demonstrates this commitment is by working with Virginia529 to bring the ABLEnow program to life.

Last year, Disability:IN named PNC as the 2019 Employer of the Year for its exemplary policies, strategies and initiatives that have resulted in measurable progress in the areas of disability inclusiveness in the workplace, marketplace and supply chain. Disability:IN is the leading nonprofit resource for business disability inclusion worldwide.

PNC hired its first accessibility officer in 2018. Since joining PNC, Greg Pollock has partnered with colleagues across the organization to develop an accessibility strategy that considers every aspect of operations. Greg represents PNC at disability inclusion conferences and has become a strong champion for ABLE accounts and the ABLEnow program.

Pollock’s work aligns with PNC’s commitment to employees and its corporate values of diversity and inclusion. Beyond that, accessibility impacts everything the bank does. “Really, it’s about making the banking experience easier for everyone – employees and customers,” Pollock says. “From our technologies to our employee benefits to our recruitment strategies, the opportunities to realize full disability inclusion are vast.”
