About This Lesson
This report looks at numerous case studies where members of labor unions have used their freedom to join strong unions and collective voice to fight for improvements that benefit all working families in communities throughout America. From helping hospitals and airports prepare to respond to the Ebola virus to helping high school students start careers in nursing, labor unions and their members are helping communities across the country prosper.
Topics include training students for careers in nursing, how a union contract can support student success, ensuring low-income kids have time to play, negotiating critical resources for students, and funding innovation to build 21st century school communities.
When unions are strong, communities are stronger.
