Better Compass For All

IT’S TIME!

Solidarity with @Glide_United! Nothing is as soulless 🧟‍♂️🧟🧟‍♀️ as union busting. Shame on @GLIDEsf executive leadership.

to get the support that we need, have a voice in our workplace, and receive better compensation.” - Jessica Duong, Early Childhood Educator, with Compass for 9 years #bettercompass4all @opeiu @opeiul29 #unionstrong

go back to work and children would have no place safe for them to go and learn. Even though there have been times that staff and children have contracted COVID, we’ve remained open throughout the whole pandemic. We deserve to be treated with equality…

“We are unionizing because we want equality, better treatment, and better compensation. As childcare workers, one of the many frontline positions at Compass, we feel that we are undervalued and underpaid for the job that we do.

The helpers also need help! "Melani Gomez is currently a case manager at Compass. She previously was a client for about seven years. 'Being a client helped me grow...But seeing the other side...they're not very supportive of their [worker] families.'" This is why we unionize!

Solidarity with @Glide_United who, like @bettercompass and thousands of nonprofit workers across the country, are coming together in union to win better working conditions at the organizations they care about. ✊👏 #1u

@compasssf @NLRB We are more than ready to stand together and fight for our rights as workers. We are excited to begin working towards an election.

We are incredibly disappointed, but not surprised, to share that @compasssf leadership has chosen "not to respond" to our request for Voluntary Recognition. Today, we filed for an election with the @NLRB in order to have our voices heard. - in solidarity, Better Compass 4 All✊

We're standing up for our rights and making a better workplace for all of us, 🌧 rain or shine ☀️

Today, we reflect upon the words of Alice Walker, who wrote, "The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don't have any." Together, we are claiming our collective power and exercising our legal right to unionize and create a Better Compass For All.

We, an overwhelming majority of employees at Compass Family Services @compasssf, have joined together to form Better Compass For All, a union affiliated with @OPEIU Local 29. Today we petitioned for voluntary recognition from our leadership.
