Building Representatives: Leadership in Our Union
Strong unions are built through active and meaningful member engagement. Building Representatives play an essential role in that work by organizing, engaging, empowering, and mobilizing members around the issues that matter most to our educators, schools, and students.
The Lynn Teachers Union recognizes that sustained member involvement is the foundation of a strong and effective union. Building Representatives help foster that involvement by advocating for their colleagues, encouraging participation, and serving as a vital link between members and the Lynn Teachers Union.
