About Coalition of Labor Union Women Northwest Ohio Chapter
Since its founding in 1974, the Coalition of Labor Union Women has served as a vital voice for union women across the nation, and the Northwest Ohio Chapter brings this mission directly to the Toledo, OH community. CLUW represents a unique commitment to unifying women workers around shared challenges and collective solutions, operating with a clear focus on remedying workplace disparities and advocating for systemic change. The Toledo chapter embodies CLUW's founding principles by connecting local women with a national organization dedicated to equal pay, safe working conditions, healthcare benefits, and protection from discrimination and harassment. Members in Toledo benefit from CLUW's comprehensive approach to social and economic justice, which extends beyond workplace issues to include active participation in political and legislative advocacy. The organization's deep roots in the labor movement—combined with its nonpartisan stance—position it as a trusted resource for union women seeking community, support, and collective action. In Toledo, Ohio, the Northwest Ohio Chapter serves as a bridge between individual workers and a powerful national network, enabling local women to access training, leadership development, and opportunities to influence union decisions that shape their futures. CLUW's enduring presence in the Toledo area reflects its commitment to advancing women's voices in labor for nearly five decades.
