After years of intensive internal organizing, organizing with the community, and a massive 6-day strike, UTLA won an incredible set of contract victories. In addition to bread and butter wage and healthcare improvements, they won a series of ‘Common Good’ demands including smaller class size, improvements to the learning environment, resources for immigrant families, a call for a moratorium on charter schools, increased green spaces on campus, additional counselors, nurses and librarians, and an end to discriminatory searches of students. In addition to winning for Los Angeles, the UTLA's strike provided inspiration for advocates of public education from across the country.

Join us on Friday, February 22nd from 12pm - 1:30pm ET / 9am - 10:30am PT to hear from UTLA and others about the planning, organizing and strategies that led to this historic victory!
