Update on CWA Human Rights Program

A group representing CWA's Executive Board Diversity Committee, National Women's Committee, Committee on Civil Rights and Equity and Minority Caucus met this week in Washington D.C to review CWA's Human Rights program and recommend ways to strengthen it. 

This is the second meeting for the group; participants met in April to begin discussions on how to expand participation at all levels of the program, develop materials for locals and use resources in ways that build the effectiveness of CWA's Human Rights effort. 

Joining the meeting were the At-Large Executive Board Diversity members, Executive Vice President Annie Hill; Vice President Brooks Sunkett, public, health care and education workers, and CWA staff working on human rights issues. President Larry Cohen also spoke with the group.

The Human Rights program encompasses CWA's civil rights and women's programs.
