Benefiting from Our Collective Consumer Strength

The Member Programs Department has been established to offer members of SEIU Local 1 programs and services that take advantage of SEIU’s consumer strength.  Just as we have used our strength at the bargaining table to win better wages and benefits, Local 1 will use that same strength to build consumer power to offer programs and services that will benefit you as a member of Local 1.  

The Members Program Department is committed to Local 1’s mission of securing our future and improving the quality life for our members and their families. For more information, call Richard Owsiany, Member Programs Director, at (312) 233-8771 or e-mail owsianyr@seiu1.org.
