Often called “my favorite union” by Martin Luther King Jr., District 1199 is a bold, democratic labor organization with a long activist tradition. Since the New England branch of 1199 was established in 1968, we’ve united nearly 30,000 workers to win a voice at work to demand improvements for people in nursing homes, hospitals, state – and community-based healthcare services.
Join 29,000 healthcare workers in Connecticut and Rhode Island — including nurses, direct care workers, CNAs, cooks, case managers, therapists, doctors, maintenance staff, home care workers, and other essential workers — who stand up in union as District 1199.
