We Are United Felton Workers
-
Emily Mann, Bilingual Clinical Team Lead -(re)MIND San Mateo
“Having a voice at work is important regardless of your position, role, how long you’ve been there, etc. A union can help give you that voice to stand up for what you deserve.“
-
Danielle Sagarminaga & Natalie Gougeon - (re)MIND San Rafael
“I want to unite with my fellow coworkers so we can have a seat at the table. We deserve to have a voice for important decisions in the workplace that affect ourselves, each other and our families.”

Tony Cantu, Staff Therapist - (re)MIND SF
“I just want to do the best for the health of my clients. I got into this field because I actually care about people and I want to help them. I’m a therapist and my job is literally emotional labor.
When we don’t have a say in the policies and procedures it’s not only tiring, but it takes away from the quality of care I can provide my patients.
I’m voting yes for my union because as a qualified professional we deserve to have our voices heard and have a say in the policies and procedures in our workplace.”
-
Rod Cooper, Administrative Manager - PREP San Mateo
“I want a union at Felton because we deserve Equity, Fairness & Transparency. Each voice has value.”
-
Nina Clark, Housing Specialist - Franklin SF
“When you have people you know got your back at work, your confidence level boosts up and you feel like you can conquer the world and your job!”
-
Hung Dinh, Clinical Case Manager - Senior ICM Franklin SF
“I support unions because I want a seat at the table. I want to be part of the decision making that affects the work that I do and in turn the quality of care I provide to my clients. I also respect due process when it comes to job security.”
-
Courtney Lorraine, Clinical Case Manager - ICM Frankin SF
“I support forming a union because I believe every organization is better when workers have a voice. I want myself and my coworkers to have a big role in the decisions that affect us and our clients. I want nonprofit jobs to be sustainable for a long career instead of constant burnout and turnover. We workers understand and care about our jobs, and I’m excited for us to shape the work for everyone’s benefit!”
-
Rayvon Williamson, Lead Case Manager - CORE Oakland Justice
“I want a union at Felton because we deserve fair compensation for our work, a voice in the decision making about us, stability & job security.”
-
Meghan Ryan, Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner - Franklin SF
“I support our right to unionize for employee solidarity in obtaining fair market wages with incremental step-increases for all staff, salary transparency, and worker’s rights. I believe in the power of collective bargaining and have witnessed positive change when a group of people come together to advocate for their needs to be met. Every Felton employee deserves to have a voice. We are stronger together.”
-
Kim Hoffman, Community Liaison - Aging Services SF
Having prior union experience, “…for the first time I had a true sense of security. I had representation.”

“A union is a staff collaborative. It isn't scary, nor "el cuco (a monster)." A union will give you an organized avenue to voice and address your work concerns.”

“The changes I want to see at Felton are to have regular reviews and cost of living raises.”
