When nonprofit CEOs try to tell staff that unions aren't suitable for nonprofit workers 👀

During the COVID-19 pandemic alone, OPEIU has supported 500+ workers in forming unions at 18 nonprofit workplaces. That's all we have to say about that 👏

Choosing a president or chancellor is 1 of the most important decisions for a board, and Kory helps our colleges w/this critical task! Forming a union was also an important decision for ACCT & we look forward to our election! #1u #executivesearch #highered #communitycollege

This morning @CCTrustees management declined to voluntarily recognize our union. We are deeply disappointed in their decision. Nevertheless, we are moving forward to an NLRB election to demonstrate what has been clear all along: that we have a majority of eligible staff support!
