CSEA Organizing

04/29/2026

Last week, some of the best senior & lead organizers from across the country joined together in Chicago to reinforce best practices on how organizers apply critical thinking skills to their campaign planning & strategy at the AFL-CIO Organizing Institute (OI) Advanced Organizer Workshop. This high level workshop took place April 22 - 24 at the Chicago Federation of Labor.

The advanced & senior organizers participating in this training were from: LIUNA, AFSCME-NUCHHE, IBT, Workers United, AFSCME-CSEA 1000, IUOE, the CMRJB, and TNG-CWA.

Check out what Ruthie, Brandon, Martinique, Jackie, and Pedro were up to at the AFL-CIO OI Advanced Organizer Workshop in Chicago!

Join us in welcoming Seaford Public Library workers into CSEA's union family. The new unit consists of all non-management, non-confidential employees.
Our new members approached Wantagh Public Library CSEA Unit President Jenn McHugh for guidance when they first began organizing. McHugh continued to support the library workers throughout the organizing process. Other volunteer member organizers include Long Island Region One President Jarvis Brown, Local 882 President John Shepherd, and Catherine Campos from other newly organized workers at Haverstraw King's Daughters Public Library.
