CSE

Community Support and Engagement (CSE)

The Community and Social Engagement Committee, under the leadership of co-chairs Fatema Baldiwala and Felipe Agredano, is dedicated to fostering strong ties with community groups. These partnerships, centered around our shared values of quality education, social justice, peace, civil, human, labor, and workers’ rights, enable us to amplify our reach and impact.

In addition to this, CSE is committed to supporting other unions in their labor struggles, providing educational opportunities to our union members and their dependents, and offering assistance to our members during times of crisis.
