Coalition of Labor Union Women Northeast OH Chapter
About Coalition of Labor Union Women Northeast OH Chapter
Rooted in the labor movement and serving the Cleveland, Ohio community since 1974, the Coalition of Labor Union Women Northeast OH Chapter represents a unique commitment to union women's empowerment and solidarity. As the only national organization dedicated exclusively to union women in America, CLUW brings together members who are passionate about creating systemic change within their workplaces and industries. The Northeast Ohio Chapter embodies CLUW's founding mission by unifying local union women to address shared challenges, develop collaborative action programs, and amplify their collective voice in the labor movement. Members in the Cleveland area work together on issues that matter most to working women: equal pay, workplace safety, accessible childcare and elder care, comprehensive health care benefits, and protection from harassment and discrimination. The organization is deeply rooted in nonpartisan advocacy, focusing on both workplace justice and broader political engagement to ensure women's voices shape the future of labor and policy. By fostering greater participation of women at all levels of union leadership and the political process, the Cleveland chapter honors CLUW's legacy while building a stronger, more inclusive labor movement for generations to come.
