Community Service Workers (CSWs) who work for LutherCare Communities Group Homes (LCGH) have served strike action notice to their Employer which will took effect at 6:00 pm on April 24, 2024.

“This action will result in some services being withdrawn by our members, and those services will have to be taken care of by management,” says Barbara Cape, President of SEIU-West. “There’s time to avoid the withdrawal of services, but the ball is in the Employer’s court to put forward a fair deal to settle a long overdue collective agreement.”
