CORRECTION: In the “Local Motion” union elections feature in our June 19 issue, IATSE’s unionization by majority signup of workers at Metro/MERC was misreported. The unit consists of 18 employ- ees in AV, not 28 patrol and in- vestigative sergeants as re- ported. The Labor Press regrets the inaccuracy. HAPPENINGS Labor agency offers Resource Navigator training July 16 Labor’s Community Service Agency (LCSA) is offering Re- source Navigator training Thursday, July 16, from 10 a.m. to noon at its office at 9955 SE Washington St., Suite 200, Port- land (home of the IBEW and United Workers Federal Credit Union). In times of crisis or need, union members often turn to their unions for assistance. But the maze of social services and available resources can be diffi- cult to understand and navigate. The Resource Navigator pro- gram shows union staffers where to direct their members in need. “Resource Navigators use ac- tive listening skills and current knowledge of where to turn for food resources, help with rent and other bills, medical solu- tions, legal issues, counseling needs and more, to point mem- bers in a direction that helps them help themselves,” said LCSA Executive Director Vickie Burns. Training is free, and space is limited to 20 people. The Reg- istration deadline is July 16. To register, or for more informa- tion, call Eryn at 503-231-4962, or email to: officemanager LCSA@gmail.com AFL-CIO Summer School Aug. 7-9 in Eugene EUGENE—The annual AFL- CIO Summer School will be held Aug. 7-9 at the University of Ore- gon in Eugene.
