On May 7, National President David Neufeld, RVP Valda Behrens and members of the USJE Communications Team took part in a southern Alberta site visit tour.
Parole Officer, Lesley Thibault and Reintegration Officer, Max Becker-Golden, whom both work at the CCC, were gracious enough to volunteer their time to lead a tour and answer questions. As part of ensuring an understanding of the reintegration process, the MP’s were provided with an overview of the federal system and how offenders move through their terms of incarceration, being given opportunities to engage with programs and services in preparation for their eventual supervised release in the community.
USJE thanks to all the members who took the time to chat with us about their work, both informally during the tours and in interviews for the national RCMP Campaign. The USJE Communications team conducted more than 20 interviews over the course of the two days!
USJE is urging its members to immediately reach out to the President of the Treasury Board, Minister Anita Anand, to express their opposition to a ‘one size fits all’ approach.
Over the week, the USJE team met with over 100 members employed by the RCMP in Saskatchewan at three F Division sites, Depot, and five detachments. The team recorded over 20 testimonials from members to be included in the USJE RCMP campaign.
The JLP has officially re-launched its in-person workshops, which are once again available to federal public-service employees. The JLP’s highly regarded experiential learning workshops are a great way to bring people together face-to-face to work on improving workplace relationships. The workshops are free of charge and explore themes aimed at improving culture and behaviours in the workplace.
Once every three years, USJE turns to Local executives with a call out for nominations for the Exemplary Service Award and Human Rights Award. That time is now!
