AFRAM

AFRAM is here to teach EVERYONE the contributions of African Americans and our rich history in our country…and our union. We are also here to continue the legacy and the importance of being able to address the issues of our union members and the African-American culture. Our union is the platform for AFRAM to educate, empower, engage, and elevate our members.

API (Asian Pacific Islanders)

The SEIU Asian Pacific Islanders Caucus aims to collaborate with community organizations to address social, economic, housing, working conditions, health, and other issues of concern to the API community.

We also aim to identify and develop community activists and member leaders within the labor movement.

Lavender Caucus

The Lavender Caucus is the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Questioning, Intersex, Asexual, Two-Spirit, (LGBTQIA2S+) and Allies Caucus of the Service Employee International Union.

Our purpose is to facilitate open and respectful communication between the LGBTQIA2S+ community and the labor movement by ensuring LGBTQIA2S+ members and staff have a sense of belonging at SEIU Healthcare MN & IA.
