Winners of the OFL 2003 Youth Booster Award

Nicole Wall and Steve Cook

The Education Director is responsible for the Workers Under 30 Committee and its activities. The Education Department continues to distribute Know Your rights booklets, posters and stickers to schools, colleges and community organizations. She also acts a resource for affiliates and organizations that are interested in youth issues.

The Education Department works with the WORKERS UNDER 30 Committee and the CLC to operate the very successful youth action project SolidarityWorks! One of the aims of the project is to have young participants continue their activism and involvement in the movement after completing this program. In 2003, SolidarityWorks! was held at Mohawk College in Hamilton. The Hamilton and District Labour Council and Workers Arts & Heritage Centre were instrumental in making the program a worthwhile experience.
