Union Restructures Divisions
District Council 37 announced new changes to its division structure. The union recently renamed and consolidated six divisions into four, allowing the union to better focus on delivering services and protecting the rights of members. The change is applicable to members who are employed at New York City mayoral agencies, cultural institutions, libraries, CUNY, MTA, TBTA and School Construction authorities, and state agencies. DC 37’s six locals in the Non-Profit Division were not part of the restructuring.
