CSEA recognizes more than 60 members
Each year after conference, Regional Representatives, Committee Members, the Retiree Unit Executive Board and the Board of Directors come together for Super Session to discuss and implement the organizational plans that were decided at the conference for the following year. This year’s Super Session in October focused on renewal. Members renewed their commitment that we are stronger together,drawing on the roots of our union and the fundamentals that have always guided us. Even though the event was hosted virtually, this did not deter members from participating and leaving Super Session energized, ready to share their enthusiasm with all our members. As they do every year at Super Session, our member leaders recognized over 60 dedicated members for their years of service to our union and members. It was a moment of deep appreciation and inspiration as many members received service awards that spanned many decades. Their commitment to their work and their love for CSEA filled the virtual room.
