This past Martin Luther King Jr. Day, the streets of Newark didn’t just echo with the memory of a leader; they vibrated with the footsteps of a movement. RWDSU Local 108 was proud to stand on the front lines as a key endorser and participant in the Martin Luther King March of Resistance, joining a coalition of over 200 organizations to demand justice, dignity, and a fair shake for every worker and family in our community.

RWDSU Local 108 recently hit the road, visiting worksites across the state to speak directly with members about the upcoming election, voter registration deadlines, and where and how to cast their votes.

On April 26, 2025, RWDSU Local 108 proudly participated in the Martin Luther King People's Convention for Justice and Resistance, held at Essex County College in Newark, New Jersey. Organized by the People's Organization for Progress (POP), the convention brought together over 65 organizations to develop a unified agenda addressing pressing social and economic justice issues.

Healthcare workers can only provide the care their patients need when they are taken care of as well. That’s why the union difference is so important to workers like the members of Local 108 who work in rehab and assisted living facilities.
