  • Your steward is your first line of support at your campus or department. They help answer questions about your contract, workplace rights, and union resources. Ask coworkers to identify your steward and introduce yourself early.

    Each worksite should host regular meetings. Get with other members at your worksite to determine the best time & place to meet.

  • Take time to review your contract and member resources available through Education Austin. Understanding your rights and protections helps you advocate for yourself, your coworkers, and your students.

  • Attend your worksite meeting, general membership meeting, committee meeting, or training session,

    Participation builds your knowledge, strengthens member power, and ensures your voice is part of union decisions and priorities.
