November 6 is CBO Workers’ Appreciation Day, recognizing and celebrating the vital role of CBO workers in Saskatchewan. CBO workers are at the heart of a network of services providing social care and child care across the province delivered through Community-Based Organizations.

CUPE members in over 30 CBO sector local unions in communities across Saskatchewan deliver social care and child care. CBO workers care for the most vulnerable in group homes and programs providing support for employment and independent living. CBO workers provide child care and early learning, and CBO workers provide support for emergency shelter, crisis intervention services, addictions treatment, and much more.

Today, let’s recognize all that CBO workers do with much heart and dedication for Saskatchewan! Thank you all CBO workers!
