SEIU 32BJ Hosts Open House At New HQ Saturday

(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)

SEIU 32BJ "has consolidated its Silver Spring and DC offices to bring our organizing department, health care fund and training funds together under one roof," says District Chair and Area Director Jaime Contreras. "This will provide our members with better access to their union!" The local is showing off its new headquarters at an Open House this Saturday at 10A and 4P. With conference rooms, plenty of workstations, and an assembly room capable of hosting 130 people, the 13,000 square foot headquarters - located in the heart of downtown Washington at the corner of Vermont Avenue and L Street NW -- will comfortably accommodate the union's staff plus enough space for growth. "The new space is more professional and welcoming for our members and guests," Contreras told Union City at a preview earlier this week. "Plus there is excellent access to an array of public transport options nearby. Also," Contreras noted, "as always, our space can be made available for use by our union brothers and sisters and community allies. Stop by and check it out on Saturday!"
