Why Join?
Your voice and participation are essential to our collective strength.
Membership is your assurance of support and protection; the full benefits of union representation are provided exclusively to members, and members are required to maintain their membership to receive representation throughout a grievance process.
We strongly encourage you to not only join but also to get involved. You can make a difference by lending your voice at general membership meetings or by contributing your skills to one of our key standing committees, such as the Bargaining, Membership, or Grievance committees.
Join us today to help build a stronger faculty and a better future for our college.
