Community Services

The Community Services Department develops programs and materials to help both working and unemployed UAW members and their families in the areas of health and social services. The department trains local union Community Services Committees and union counselors who can then link members and their families with health, financial, or other problems to the government and private agencies in their community who can best assist them. It also helps UAW locals run Employee Assistance Programs.

The department works closely with the UAW Strike Assistance Department in helping UAW members during a strike and plays an activist role in many agencies, coalitions, and community groups.
