Our Mission
We are the union representing employees at the New York Legal Assistance Group (NYLAG). We provide free legal services, financial counseling, and engage in policy advocacy to help people experiencing poverty. Our union seeks a workplace that will allow us to best support and fight for our clients as they strive to build better lives for themselves, their families, and their communities.
Join a Caucus
A Better NYLAG has formed four caucuses. If you identify as a member of one of the following groups, please reach out to your caucus representative to join and get involved.
Get Involved
We are only as strong as our membership! The more we hear from you, the better. The more management hears from you, the better. Here are some ways you can get involved, and always keep an eye on your email for updates!
get in touch with your representative
Your representatives want to hear from you! Reach out to us with questions, ideas, concerns. We are here for you.
join our Communications team
As we work to secure a contract, we need your help. If you are not a representative but want to take on a more active role in our union, join our communications team to develop and implement tactics to support our bargaining process at each step of the way.
get ready to take action!
As we negotiate our contract, we are going to need all of our members to remind management that we are in this together—the bargaining process involves all of us. Keep an eye out for actions you can take to support the fight.
