“In Northern California our organizing programs are the most successful in the Brotherhood. We also provide service to our membership that is second to none. We could not achieve these high standards without the active involvement of our rank and file in the Carpenters In Action program!” - Bob Alvarado, Executive Secretary Treasurer
Over the past six years the Carpenters In Action (CIA) program has worked alongside the Organizing Department in the daily fight for Carpenters throughout Northern California. Whether it be speaking at City Hall or joining the everyday campaigns against the non-union on the street, members of the CIA are involved with the fight for Carpenter issues!
These campaigns have generated billions of dollars of new work hours for the membership and have led to the successful organizing of major non-union contractors. Rank-and-file participation at the Local Union level has been a key element to this success. Members who join their Local’s CIA are trained in all aspects of organizing. These trainings include organizing tactics, public speaking, political involvement and legal strategies.
Moving into our seventh year of the CIA we are rolling out the new Organizing Legal Training for the rank and file. We strongly encourage you to get involved in your CIA. The job you create may be your own!
