The UFT Solidarity Caucus, founded in 2014, is a group within the United Federation of Teachers that will bring the Union’s focus back to its members. By improving the working conditions of the Union members, who serve our school communities, we believe we can make the positive changes our school system so desperately needs. We will do this together. We will do this in solidarity.

Our Mission

We are committed:

To advocate for all members and improve our professions

To provide oversight and support to members harassed and struggling under hostile work conditions

To expose corruption and abuses that negatively affect member working conditions and therefore our communities

To advance our union whilst embracing these challenges

Solidarity will bring this back. Remember what the UFT used to be?

"Building a strong union, brick by brick."

UFT Solidarity 2019 Campaign Slogan

Solidarity is a vibrant caucus of action

The video below was taken back in March 2009 and shows Union strength and solidarity with the community.

UFT Solidarity Caucus will bring this back.

A union of 200,000 members can be a solid force used to improve education.

Together we can improve education by improving our profession.
