Wednesday, May 20, 2015

Bedtime reading for those future union organizers/activists!
 

Manny and the Mango Tree is about a good-natured boy who cannot understand why the owner of his apartment building won't let the children pick the luscious mangoes from the tree in the courtyard that they lovingly watered and fed. With the parents scared the owner will call immigration if they object, Manny and his friends organize a protest march that raises one hullabaloo. Ages 4-8.


It's Mothers Day!!

Sunday, May 10, 2015

Happy Mother's Day to all of those amazing union moms out there!


"Our Children Need to Hear Us Talk About Union" - Huffington Post blog written by AFSCME Secretary Treasurer

"Throughout our nation's history, women have played a significant role in transforming workers' lives.  Their courage, spirit and contributions not only changed the labor movement but helped shape our society - and still inspire us today." ~ AFL-CIO Working Women in Union History

National Women's Health Week Kicks off on Today!! 

Celebrate this Mother’s Day by participating in the 16th annual National Women’s Health Week kicking off on May 10. An observance to empower women to make their health a priority, National Women’s Health Week also serves as a time to help women understand what steps they can take to improve their health.  

To improve your physical and mental health, you can visit a doctor or nurse to receive regular checkups and preventive screenings; get active; eat healthy; pay attention to mental health, including getting enough sleep and managing stress; avoid unhealthy behaviors, such as smoking, texting while driving, and not wearing a seatbelt or bicycle helmet.
