Membership is the Foundation
ITA members have a voice in the decision making of our Association. This includes voting on a new contract, and electing officers and other governance representatives. Member input has helped new unit members adjust to the profession, to conditions in the District and to do outreach in the community for support of our schools. Our union is currently working on meaningful and effective educational reform. Teachers and other credentialed professionals are represented on District committees that affect our professional lives. These and many more activities are carried on by the Irvine Teachers Association. The involvement of our more than 1,800 members is what makes us strong!
Now that the Supreme Court ruled against public sector unions like ours in the Janus case, it is more important than ever that the members of ITA understand why joining and remaining an active member of our union is so important.
