See how losing healthcare has affected three part-time faculty members and how CFT is fighting to secure $200 million in state monies to provide health insurance to part-timers.

More part-time faculty talk about how not having medical coverage puts stress on their work lives and personal lives.

CFT is promoting one of the most robust legislative campaigns ever for part-time faculty, and members are stepping up to support it.

COVID and the resulting drop in student enrollment during the last two semesters have placed heavy burdens on contingent faculty.

The cross-union, cross-sector coalition promotes socio-economic and racial justice, and the promise of higher education.
