As we look toward 2026, we are focused on the opportunities ahead and strengthened by the unity of the union community that drives real progress. At the Union Labor Advisory Network, our work is rooted in pride, solidarity, and a commitment to uplifting working families and the communities they serve.
The year ahead brings continued growth—expanding workforce development partnerships with Level Up and other organizations, strengthening CTE programs, and advancing VFW
remediation efforts through the ULA Network Charitable Foundation and Vets 4 Vets Community Construction Projects, creating meaningful union work while honoring those who served.
In 2026, we will continue championing tradeswomen, guiding the next generation toward apprenticeship opportunities, supporting union veterans, and elevating conversations around mental wellness and member benefits. This work reflects who we are—a community united by purpose and dedicated to the future of organized labor.
Thank you to our sponsors and union clients for trusting the ULA Network to amplify union labor, highlight member services, and deliver impactful media that strengthens communities nationwide.
