Episode Details

Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center workers are poised to vote on union representation this June, after their former union walked away following months of stalled negotiations. Frustrated by management’s disconnect, chronic staffing shortages, and low pay, staff are turning to Teamsters Local 696 — with overwhelming support — to finally have a voice in policy and caseload decisions. While the center hires outside consultants to influence the outcome, employees see it as a tactic to suppress union momentum. Their goal? To be heard, protected, and empowered to shape workplace practices — not just for better conditions, but to deliver better care to their community.
