On July 7, the Lourdes Counseling Center employees unanimously voted to ratify their first contract with LifePoint. After 14 months of bargaining, leafletting, picketing, and strike votes, we finally came to a tentative agreement that we were able to confidently bring forward to membership with a recommended yes vote.  

The contract includes fair wages and benefits and the tools to build a safe and healthy working environment.  This could not have been done without the hard work and dedicated leadership of the bargaining team, along with the overwhelming solidarity of their coworkers and fellow union members.  

This is the beginning of a new era at LCC, and a foundation for the membership to build off of in years to come.
