MSU NAACP College & Youth Chapter Soul Food Sunday Hurricane Relief Event

The AFT Local 1904 is proud to be helping the Montclair State University College and Youth Chapter of the NAACP with their Soul Food Sunday Hurricane Relief Effort this Sunday, November 19th from 3:00pm-6:00pm in the Student Center Dining Room. 

The NAACP Youth Chapter's goal is to bring the community together on campus for a Sunday Dinner, devoted to heritage and culture. 

All proceeds from the event will go to a relief fund for the families devastated in Puerto Rico, following Hurricane Maria, which affected many of our students and staff.

The Local encourages you to attend to support our students, and the Puerto Rican relief effort. The cost is $10 for Montclair State students and $15 for family, friends and all others.

Day One of Membership Recruitment Blitz

Membership Blitz Week

This fall, during the week of November 13th, the Local is participating in the Council of NJ State College Locals' membership blitz, in an effort to increase the number of full-members in each Local.

The goal of the blitz is to strengthen our membership in order to withstand the anticipated impact of the SCOTUS decision on Janus v. AFSCME

However, the Local's Officers need your help to make our efforts during the blitz a success. If you can volunteer any amount of time this week, please contact Jennifer Higgins via email, at jennifer.higgins@aftlocal1904.org. 

The officers hope you will join us as we fight forward and fight back against anti-worker efforts to "defund and defang" unions.
