Your membership ID is found on your membership card. I was able to access without it but my e-mail is AFSMCE registered so that may account for it.

LERC Trainings  
The Labor Education and Research Center at the U of O offers very informative classes with the additional benefit of engaging with members from other unions and AFSCME locals. Please visit the site below for a listing of upcoming trainings.

If you are interested in any of these classes, please contact Local 3336 Chief Steward Bill McMillen.

The Local traditionally pays for class fees, mileage and lost time if incurred.

Mortgage Help  
Many of our members, along with many other Americans, are facing challenges due to adjustable rates mortgages. AFSCME offers you some resources for making informed decisions in this area.
