Local 40 Organizing Internships & Training Opportunities

May 24, 2018

Local 40 is building a progressive alliance of workers, students and community activists by training, agitating, and inspiring people to fight for justice. We place a lot of emphasis on training and fieldwork. People learn by doing, whether it’s hearing about the real situations of working people in a house visit, doing research on a corporation, speaking truth to power on a delegation, or recruiting friends, family, or coworkers to an action. UNITE HERE is committed to inspiring people of all ages and backgrounds to join our movement.

Leadership Development Training

Learn organizing skills alongside our rank and file leaders!  You’ll learn how to have organizing conversations, how to campaign strategically, and how to understand our place within the larger movement for social justice. Finally, you’ll get the opportunity to put all of this to use by doing live fieldwork on one of our local campaigns.

Learn from skilled organizers, researchers, and rank and file leaders who have committed themselves to developing their own leadership and yours.

Join us and be inspired by people like you who are rising to take up the struggle for economic and social justice!  

To learn more, please contact Mike Biskar: [email protected].
