A&R offers 15 scholarships to dependents of A&R members. If you have a graduating High School senior or a child who is already in post-secondary school and would like to apply for an A&R Scholarship our deadline is March 28, 2024. There are also two AFT-CT scholarship programs available which are open to all A&R members as well.
AFT-CT is holding 6 Regional Legislative Meetings in March. The events are free to A&R members and they give attendees the opportunity to sit and meet directly with their local State Reps/Senators. Great events and a perfect opportunity to let them know that you expect them to support our Wage contract which will be on the floor for a vote in just a months.
