Applications are now being accepted for the 2020 OPEIU Student Debt Reduction Program. Full details, rules and applications can be found here as well as on the OPEIU app*.

OPEIU will provide five awards of $2,500 to OPEIU members who have at least $10,000 in student debt and are able to prove their account is current. A member can receive an award only once in a lifetime, and must have completed an associate or undergraduate degree.

Dear Local 30 Member,

On behalf of the entire Local 30 Executive Board, our leadership, members, and staff, we hope that you and those you hold dear are safe and healthy during this unprecedented time.

While we are in the midst of dealing with changing circumstances and directives on a minute-by-minute basis, we are also looking forward to gathering again as a community, stronger than ever for our care of one another and our collaboration.  We want to be sure our next General Membership meeting with you and others is convened safely.

The OPEIU Local 30 Executive Board has made the decision to postpone the General Membership meeting scheduled for April 23, 2020 to July 2020.  

While Shelter-in-Place is the directive under which we are living, your OPEIU Local 30 Executive Board and staff is working 24/7 thru the COVID-19 crisis and representing all the membership.

Sincerely,
Marianne Giordano
Executive Director/CFO

April 2020 General Membership Meeting Postponed

Dear Local 30 Members,

I wanted to share with all of you the benefits that the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) provides.  The CARES Act provides over $2 trillion dollars in relief aid for workers and their families due to COVID-19.  

I hope that the attached presentation is helpful to you or someone you know that may be experiencing difficulties during this pandemic.  

In unity,
Marianne Giordano
Executive Director/CFO

Two Trillion Dollars CARES Act
