Staff Nurse Facilitators NU Negotiations 2010

Three NU Staff Nurses have agreed to assist our Union with the work of reaching out to our membership during 2010 negotiations. They will help facilitate the Union's 16/160/1600 communication system through data base work as well as supporting the work of the 2010 Negotiation Communication, Organization, Administrative/Executive, Research, and Action committees of our NU Staff Nurse Membership. They will also be closely tracking negotiations to make sure membership is well informed and updated on a regular basis from now through the completion of 2010 negotiations. There will also be a community outreach component to their support of the Union. If you need to contact them with updates, questions, ideas, communication, feedback, etc. they can be reached through e-mail at:
