We hope you and your family are staying safe and healthy during this stressful time.
As you may have heard, out of an abundance of caution and based of Department of Public Health recommendations, the union bargaining session that was scheduled for today has been canceled. OPEIU 29 is committed to getting a fair contract for our Food Bank members, and our next bargaining session is happening on March 24. We are committed to working through this unprecedented event and continuing to advocate for our members.
