Rebuilding strong communities
Every day, in countless ways, CUPE members are rebuilding strong communities. We’re fighting privatization and contracting out and promoting investment in quality public services as an alternative. We’re demonstrating the importance of public services and social programs as building blocks for strong communities. And we’re highlighting the important work CUPE members do to make our cities and towns great places to live.
CUPE really is the community union. Together, let’s keep our communities strong, vibrant and healthy places to live and work.
