Recovery
Massachusetts Building Trades Unions have staff and benefits to help members through trying times. Find a weekly meeting to attend for support or call an officer or member of your trade directly in the list below. Use these resources to find help. With union health benefits and support, you can recover and you can get back to work afterwards.
If you are interested in supporting Building Trades Unions Recovery Fund or would like Recovery Banners and Stickers for your union local or job site, please contact Liana at Liana@massbuildingtrades.org
