This workshop will cover the basic concepts and skills involved in building a strategic, escalating campaign around staffing, wages, and benefits for nurses. With examples from NYSNA and other union campaigns, participants will be presented with strategies on how to put pressure on employers to achieve nurses’ contract demands.

This workshop is open to new NYSNA members looking to learn more about how NYSNA works and how you can get more involved in the work of the union.
