The Society of American Archivists' Committee on Public Policy (COPP) and the Issues & Advocacy (I&A) Section are excited to invite you to a virtual joint business meeting and annual program of the Society of American Archivists' Committee on Public Policy (COPP) on July 24th, from 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM (EST).
The meeting will begin with a 30-minute business session, where we will discuss key updates and initiatives for COPP (15 mins) and I&A (15 mins). Following this, the Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee (EWOC) will facilitate a 60-minute workshop on how to organize and build power with your coworkers. The process of joining a union can be murky -- so join this discussion to learn more about the first basic steps you can take with your coworkers to get started!
The Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee (EWOC) provides support and training to non-union workers organizing for better working conditions with a goal of building a stronger, worker-led labor movement. EWOC was founded in March 2020 and has since trained and supported thousands of workers who want more respect, better working conditions and a voice on the job.
