We’re Excited for bargaining to begin

United in our determination to better advocate for ourselves, our families and kiddos, we are excited to join UFCW 3000 union. With an eye toward having a larger voice on issues and ways to deliver the best care to our families and kiddos.

Last week we had our first meeting as a Bargaining Team to commence writing proposals for our very first contract. We worked on language that will help us get higher wages, better benefits, foster a safe and healthy working environment, improve safe staffing standards, and conditions that will reduce burnout and ensure safe, manageable work.

“It’s thrilling to start making this dream a reality! It’s empowering to take all this knowledge we have and finally put it down in a contract that works for us! We’re changing how birth to three services are represented - and being a part of that change is exhilarating!” - Jenica Barrett, Speech Language Pathologist, Bargaining Team

"It’s inspiring to work with such a passionate group of people and I can’t wait to see what we accomplish together!" - Kimmy Burns, Physical Therapist, Bargaining Team

"I’m excited to stand together in uplifting our collective voice and making a positive change!" - Cassie Villarreal, Speech Language Pathologist, Bargaining Team
