Bridging the Divide: Tools for Building Union Solidarity. October 2, 2021, 10 am- 1:30 pm
How do we talk to members and coworkers who think differently than us (politics, racial and gender justice, membership, etc...)? Would you like to be a better leader in your workplace and a voice for change? These are such big issues – what can we actually do about it?

This participatory workshop is designed to give you practical tools for building union solidarity within your workplace. Hosted by the SW WA Works Together Committee, this one-day session will help you to engage in effective conversations to build unity and solidarity among those you work with.
