Throughout April, educators, students, campus workers, health care providers, and community members at public and private colleges, universities, and hospitals across the nation will be participating in national days of action to advocate for higher education and health care as public goods, while recognizing campus and health care workers as vital to these systems and essential to the well-being of students, patients, and communities.
There are many ways to take action—press conferences, rallies, tabling, informational picketing, and more. If you’re interested in planning an event for your chapter, rest assured, you won’t be alone! Simply fill out the form below to let us know what kind of event you’d like to organize, and an officer liaison will follow up to coordinate any necessary support:
National Plans:
- Kill the Cuts – On Tuesday, April 8th, 2025 workers across the country are standing up and demanding NO cuts to life-saving research, medical care, and education.
- Day of Action for Higher Ed – On Thursday, April 17, 2025 campus workers will hold a day of action at campuses across the country to fight for higher education.
If April 8th or April 17th doesn’t work for your campus, no worries! Choose another day to participate and still be part of the movement.
