The Women’s Caucus of the United Association for Labor Education (UALE) and the Berger Marks Foundation are pleased to announce a new collaborative project focused on assessing current practices and strategically planning ways to increase the impact of labor education and leadership programs for union women. Building on almost forty years of experience with the UALE Union Women’s Regional Summer Schools, related union and university programs, and the foundation’s scholarship and mentoring initiatives the project will gather data on existing programs and convene a conference of 25 labor educators with expertise in women’s leadership development. The weekend retreat will facilitate the intergenerational exchange of information and experience, develop strategies for improving union women’s leadership programs, and produce an on-line source of materials, a summer school coordinator’s guide, and a report on the state of women’s labor education. We are currently seeking applicants for the job of project coordinator. A job description follows.
