Our new leadership has been hard at work setting up our new Steward program, which will be integrated into a new Member Action Team structure that includes 'MAT Leaders' who have not yet completed the Steward training (click here to enroll in the next class).

Our long-term goal is for each Local 768 member to be assigned a Steward or MAT Leader who will:

• Serve as initial contact and support
• Be able to respond to issues promptly
• Maintain regular communication

With this in place, we will be able to enforce our contracts more effectively and even be more ambitious in what we demand from our employers.

For this to work, we can't afford to have Stewards and MAT Leaders overwhelmed and burnt out, so we'll be limiting the assignments to a manageable number (AFSCME recommends about 20 members per leader), and providing on-going support and training.

Join us Wednesday 3/24 at 8PM
As we launch this program!

We'll be reviewing the roles of Stewards & MAT Leaders, as well as the supports we have set up to help us all make Local 768 a stronger union.
