Member Appreciation Month
Throughout May, CSEA celebrated Member
Appreciation Month, which highlighted
the vital services that CSEA members perform
throughout the state, as well as the dedication of
our union members to their important work.
“Every single day, CSEA members are the
backbone of our communities, keeping our
schools running, maintaining our public spaces,
Our union celebrates
Member Appreciation Month
ensuring vital health and safety services, and
supporting countless government operations that
New Yorkers rely on,” said CSEA President Mary E.
Sullivan.
Our union hosted and sponsored special
Member Appreciation events in every region.
One of the highlights of the month was “A Toast
to YOU,” a special virtual event on May 19 that
allowed CSEA members to come together as a
union family to celebrate their work, connect with
one another and enjoy well-earned recognition
and relaxation. We will feature photos from other
events in the July-August edition.
Here’s a look at just a few members who were
