The CUPEverse is everything CUPE from coast to coast to coast
It’s 700,000 members who work in health care, school boards, municipalities, airlines, transportation and more.
It’s the 2200# locals representing workers in small towns, big cities and rural communities.
It’s elected leadership, rank and file membership and paid staff.
It’s skills and experience and motivation.
It’s the everyday work of your local, it’s our National Convention every two years, and everything in-between.
It’s a movement, an organization and a collective asssertion of our rights as workers.
