Student Debt Clinics

As a union, we are fighting to make college affordable to student debt manageable. We maintain www.forgivemystudentdebt.org as a resource for members who need to learn the language of free and underused federal programs that help many student loan borrowers lower their monthly payments, and in some cases, even have their debt forgiven.

Dear Union Member, 

For over 20 years, the Union Plus Scholarship program has been making annual college scholarship awards to union family members. In total we've awarded more than $3.7 million in educational funding to more than 2,500 union members, spouses and dependent children!

Union Plus Scholarship awards are granted to students attending a two-year college, four-year college, graduate school or a recognized technical or trade school. Union families looking for help financing their education should check out the Union Plus Scholarship.

You still have time to submit your 2015 Union Plus
