The impact of a staff union at the Center for Community Change

From a more supportive work environment and improved morale to a clear process for resolving disagreements and more collaboration with management, workers at the Center for Community Change (CCC) say that joining a union has made all the difference. “We originally joined together in union with the Nonprofit Professional Employees Union (NPEU) in the fall of 2016 to have a say in our workplace, live our values, and strengthen CCC through our collective voice,” writes Tony Nam on the NPEU blog. “The provisions in our first contract (ratified in July 2017), developed through negotiations with management, helped us to do just that.”
