This month is Mental Health Awareness Month.
We stand for workplaces where people feel safe asking for help, supported through difficult moments, and valued beyond their productivity.
Stress, burnout, anxiety, grief, and depression affect working people across every industry, and no one should have to face those challenges alone.
Checking in on a union family member, taking time to care for yourself, and speaking openly about mental health can make a real difference.
We believe solidarity means showing up for one another on the job and beyond it.

As we push forward this year, don’t forget to check in on yourself.
UWUA members show up for others every day—but your mental health matters too. Take time, speak up, and reach out if you need support. Strong unions start with healthy members.

STAND WITH REI UNION WORKERS: No contract. No sale.

REI Co-op workers have been organizing for the past four years and are STILL fighting for a first contract. Instead of living up to their supposed co-op values, REI has continued to union-bust and delay negotiations.

Skip the anniversary sale happening through May 25th and gear up with local outfitters or buy directly from brands instead.

No sale is worth funding REI’s corporate agenda. ✊
