In addition to regular video and face-to-face meetings for work related to union governance, the Representative Assembly maintains a number of standing committees that address topics and issues of importance to union members. Committees welcome issues, concerns, and suggestions from faculty – please contact a member of the relevant committee.
Our elected Representatives also represent UNAC on state (APEA/AFT) and national (AFL-CIO) union boards.
