Why Unionizing? Unionizing is not workers “being difficult” or choosing their wellbeing over survivor safety. Unionizing is an act of love, a sign of commitment to this work. Anti-violence workers, many survivors themselves, deserve to have their needs met to continue supporting survivors. You cannot pour from an empty cup. #WorkerPowerWednesday; We Deserve Better Project
Turnover is high in the #AntiViolence field, but we can reduce this by making sure workers, many of them survivors themselves, have healthy, supportive workplaces to continue doing the work they love. #WorkerPowerWednesday

Survey and Focus Groups: We are exploring how unionizing has been or could be used as a tool to improve anti-violence workplaces. We hope to collect the wisdom of anti-violence workers to create a blueprint for transforming our movement. Coming soon!; Resource Sharing: We will be sharing unionizing resources on WDBP’s social media, including Unionizing 101 posts, insights from our research, and busting common myths around unionizing.

Creating a collective vision for #WorkerPower across the anti-violence field. Together, we will imagine what a national anti-violence workers’ union could look like.
