We often hear the saying, "Health is wealth," and it couldn't be truer.
That’s why CAPE through the Coalition of County Unions (CCU) consistently negotiates a fair Choices contribution and strong benefits at the CCU table. Nevertheless, as we navigate through our busy work and home schedules, it's easy to overlook certain aspects of our well-being. Today, we'd like to shed light on a fundamental yet sometimes neglected aspect of health – oral hygiene.
We are a successful and thriving union, but a strong contract means little if members aren’t aware of our rights in the workplace and empowered to exercise them.
In this issue, we look back at the amazing work and incredible victories secured during the fall and winter of 2023, discuss helpful tips when considering retirement, and gear up for CAPE’s 60th Anniversary in 2024.
On behalf of our CAPE Board of Directors, Delegate Leaders, and Staff, we wish you a healthy and happy holiday filled with joy and laughter through the New Year.
Holiday Closure: Our CAPE office will be closed on Monday, December 25, as well as Monday, January 1.
