“I am a union member because it is democracy in action. Being a part of a union ensures that you are a part of a collective, working to protect our rights & create positive change in your working environment.”
“I am a proud union member because it is the most grassroots way to create positive change for teachers’ working conditions and our students’ learning conditions. The collaborative process for our collective bargaining agreement is an empowering way to know our rights, build better opportunities, and strengthen our relationships across the district in a way that has a profound impact on staff and students alike.”
“I joined JCEA to invest in my career and help advocate for our profession. As the son of a proud IBEW union worker, I came to see the union as a community and I believe in the strength of a unified community working towards a common goal. I’m proud to be JCEA because it represents that community that made me want to make a home in Jeffco.”
