The LaborFamilyNews
is an excellent source of information for working families.
It is the newsletter of the Labor
Project for Working Families.
The Labor Project partners with unions to advocate for family
friendly workplaces because no one should have to choose between work and
family. Like CWA, the Labor
Project envisions a world in which all workers have time and resources to
care for themselves and their families. Founded in 1992,
the Labor Project is a national non-profit organization that educates and
empowers unions to organize, bargain and advocate for family friendly
workplaces. We build broad based coalitions that unite labor, community
and advocacy groups to advance policies that put families first. CWA 9000 is proud
to support the Labor Project for Working Families. _________________________________________________________________________________________
We held our 2010
Annual Summer Picnic on Sunday, August 15.
Hundreds of CWA family members turned out for a beautiful day of
fun, solidarity and great food. There were games and
activities for kids of all ages, including egg and water balloon toss,
sack races, swimming, face painting and much more. We also held a door
prize raffle every half hour. Ten
lucky members walked away with some terrific prizes donated by union
vendors including Dr. David Abri with Aesthetic
Dentistry, Coghlan
Financial Group,
and American
Income Life. This year’s picnic
was held at Veterans Park in Culver City.
The venue was changed from Griffith Park due to a drastic increase
in the fee for reserving picnic tables.
Vet’s Park provided plenty of tables and parking, plus access to
a jungle gym and swimming pool for the kids. See more photos
