BECOME AN ACTIVIST
Internal UTD Standing Committees are open to all UTD members except where noted. Involvement in your union takes many forms. A committee or caucus is the perfect place to meet fellow union members who share your union interests! Committees/caucuses meet monthly as determined by the committee/caucus members.
UTD Caucuses are annually approved groups that must meet specific criteria and are focused on a specific issue(s).
Joint UTD/M-DCPS Task Forces are limited to a number of participants by our contract. UTD President selects interested UTD members annually to serve on the UTD/M-DCPS Task Forces. The UTD President seeks new and experienced members to serve.
UTD Standing Committee members are elected by the UTD council of Building Stewards.
Deadline to sign up for a committee or caucus is early September during the beginning of each school year. Click here to learn more.
