Community support needed as contract expiration approaches

Community support has never been as important to the struggle of janitors in the region as it is now. Your support is essential in the struggle to gain the better hours, wages, and benefits janitors need. Please join us on our marches, participate in one of the delegations visiting building owners, or by signing the Principles for a Responsible Real Estate Industry document. Here is our current list of upcoming events which we will be updating regularly as more are added to the list.
For more information on these or any other new events contact:
