Functional Chapter Leader Training

The many faces of the UFT were in evidence — and working toward common goals — at a Functional Chapter Leader Training weekend on March 9-10 in Rye Brook, New York. Workshops on all aspects of being an effective leader were on tap for members whose work takes place in nurse, guidance, psychology and administrative school offices, therapeutic settings, the homes of truant students and one-on-one with the city’s neediest.

School guidance counselors, with Chapter Leader Rosemarie Thompson (second from left), were among the many functional chapters that signed on for the informative day of workshops.
