Reminder: "Home Is Here" Resources O U R U N I O N P R O V I D E S Know Your Rights Red Cards in multiple languages, Safe Space posters with various designs, Safe Space buttons and Know Your Rights trainings for members at no cost. All have been in high demand — no surprise, given the intensifying ICE raids and other attacks on vulnerable populations in our state. Just in the past few months, more than 322,150 red cards and almost 109,000 posters/buttons have been delivered to members. CTA's Human Rights Cadre program has held more than a dozen Know Your Rights trainings at local chapters and service centers since the beginning of this year. Order red cards and posters and find more information about our support for immigrant educators, students and families at cta.org/homeishere. Request a Know Your Rights training, which focuses on student and educator legal rights and protections, details on resources to share and more, at cta.org/human-rights-cadre-training-program. Welcome to Our Special #UnionStrong Issue! W H A T A Y E A R it's been — full of local chapters' amazing actions and our union's tremendous advocacy efforts at the state and federal level. Summer is the perfect time to celebrate and reflect on our successes and victories over the past school year — and there are plenty of them, as you'll see in the following pages. While there is much work yet to do, we're taking a moment to honor our union's awe- inspiring achievements — we have made incredible gains in 2024–25! Together, we can win fully funded, fully staffed, safe and supportive schools for every student, educator and community in California. 3 S U M M E R 2 0 2 5 U P F R O N T #Union Strong S P E C I A L I S S U E 2 0 2 5
