Labor Vision

In the first half of the program, Stephanie Mandeville from NEARI and Kathy McElroy of SEIU Local 580 sit down with Erica Hammond for the "Women in Leadership," program of our Women at Work series, talking briefly about their unions, who they represent, the role they play, and any specific issues or goals they are working to achieve. Then they will close with tips for women in labor interested in taking on leadership roles.And in the second part of the show, Jay Walsh from the American Association of University Professors at URI, will sit down with Erica to give an overview of his union's members and what they fight for; and he'll be looking forward at the new appointments to the university's Board of Trustees in February and offering his comments.
