Dear UFT Members,
Again, thanks so much for taking the time to fill out the Member Survey, and thank you for spreading the word to UFT colleagues and friends. Our emerging group of active and retired educators has been talking about how to best get our grassroots movement started, and we’re ready to get things going!
Here are some next steps for October:
Attend our first UFT Members Assembly on Tuesday, October 29, at 7PM.
It’s time for rank-and-file voices like yours to be heard. What issues do you want UFT leadership to advocate for? What changes do you want to make happen in our UFT? How can we make these changes a reality?
We will hold a virtual Member Assembly every month, leading up to the UFT Citywide Election in May 2025.
Your voice matters, and together we will build a better, stronger UFT.
We also encourage you to invite your UFT friends, colleagues and family to this ongoing conversation. You can do so by forwarding them this email or download and print this flyer.
