770 Women’s Network
The primary purpose of the UFCW Women’s Network is to unify UFCW women through an International network. Women, who comprise more than 50 percent of the UFCW’s members, represent a powerful resource for the union. The Network believes that the active participation of women members in the UFCW will enhance our union’s strength at the bargaining table, in organizing campaigns, and in the political arena.
