So proud to announce that our Local 3778 president, Donique Berry, has been featured in a DC 37 article!! Please share the article to support our local!!! The link is below.
“Local 3778 launched in 2018 to represent 15 science and engineering titles at NYPD. A coworker nominated Berry for secretary and she did not shy away from the challenge to get involved in her union. “I learned it takes patience and dedication,” she said. “My responsibility as secretary was to assure that things get done.”
Now the initial one-year president’s term set by the local’s constitution has Berry’s “clock ticking” to make a difference. Her shift was changed to days which allows her to reach more veteran analysts. “With 75 percent of our members in the same building,” Berry said “it’s easier to handle labor-management issues as they arise.”
“My priorities are to build members’ trust and faith in the union and in the local,” Berry said. “It was the right decision to become a local. I see and speak to members daily. I’m a happy person and I smile a lot. I invite members to union meetings — and they come. Attendance and union participation is up.””
