The CUPE Metro District Council and the Fraser Valley District Council are partnering to host a conference that mobilizes not-yet-engaged members to build the strength and capacity of your local. This conference is designed for new members, young members, and members who have been part of your local for a longer time but have not had the chance to become more actively engaged and want to learn more about CUPE, what our union does, and where they can fit in. Not sure if this conference is the right fit? Check out our FAQ document for more information.

In response to the health concerns of our members and staff, CUPE has implemented a Scent-Free Policy at all of our workshops. Scented products such as hair spray, perfume and deodorant can trigger reactions such as respiratory distress and headaches. Facilitators and participants are asked to refrain from using scented products while attending our workshops and meetings. Thank you for your cooperation.
