We’re not stopping! Join your coworkers next Wednesday morning, July 19th, at the UC San Francisco Rutter Center for the UC Regents meeting where we will continue to demand that felony and student conduct charges against workers be dropped and our contract be implemented in full!

64% of college dropouts directly associate their departure with mental health concerns. UC must support & retain the behavioral health workers that students rely on. Join our April 26 town hall to learn what we're doing to address this crisis: upte.org/mentalhealth

What’s 25/5? 👊 25/5 is our latest fight for UC workers! 💰 Workers at UC are struggling to get by. 📈 Like most of us, the 15% inflation has severely impacted our lives. UC knows this.

We're scraping by, working 2-3 jobs to cover our most basic needs. @UofCalifornia, without us, medical centers and campuses would simply not run. We demand higher compensation too: $25/hr for ALL workers + 5% for 3299 members already at $25/hr!
