About Coalition of Labor Union Women Rhode Island Chapter

The Coalition of Labor Union Women Rhode Island Chapter serves union women throughout Providence, RI and beyond, providing dedicated advocacy and support on critical workplace issues. As part of America's only national organization exclusively for union women, the Rhode Island Chapter works to advance equal pay, secure job protections, and ensure safe working conditions for all members. The organization champions comprehensive benefits including child and elder care support, affordable healthcare access, and contraceptive equity. Members benefit from coordinated efforts to combat sexual harassment and violence in the workplace while building stronger voices within the labor movement. Since CLUW's founding in 1974, the Rhode Island Chapter has maintained a nonpartisan approach to addressing workplace inequality and economic justice. The organization focuses on empowering women to take leadership roles at all levels of union representation and actively works to organize unorganized workers. Through strategic advocacy and community engagement, the Chapter promotes affirmative action policies and increased women's participation in political and legislative processes that affect working families. Whether addressing wage gaps, negotiating better benefits, or fighting for workplace safety standards, the Coalition of Labor Union Women Rhode Island Chapter combines decades of national experience with local knowledge to create meaningful change for union women in the Providence community and throughout the state.
