United Domestic Workers of America, UDW/AFSCME Local 3930, is a statewide labor union that represents more than 150,000 home care and childcare providers in 45 counties throughout California. Founded in 1979, UDW is a diverse, progressive labor organization that seeks dynamic, committed individuals who will support our members and those for whom they care locally, statewide and at the national level. 

In 2019, Child Care Providers United California (CCPU) and United Domestic Workers of America (UDW) came together to fight for California’s kids. As a team member of CCPU/UDW you will have the unique opportunity to impower Childcare providers in having a seat at the table with decision-makers in the childcare system, host our own meetings, prepare providers in becoming activist in their profession on a larger scale, and guide providers to become leaders in their childcare union. 

UDW and CCPU are California’s largest unions of home care and childcare providers and consistently supported and led our community’s social justice initiatives including racial justice, income inequality and affordable health care for all. We are committed to respect and dignity for Californians with disabilities, families, children, the sick, and the elderly. We fight for better working conditions collectively and fair pay and better benefits for home care and childcare providers and full funding for the programs and benefits these providers need.
