Join us for some craftivism at our Whistle Kit Packing Party!

We'll assemble whistle kits with safety resources, informational materials, and other supplies for community distribution. Whether you're a seasoned organizer or new to the campaign, this is a great opportunity to contribute, meet fellow volunteers, and help support our neighbors. No experience necessary.

We encourage you to wear comfortable clothing and bring alternative seating options, such as a yoga mat, camping chair, or floor pillow (not required!).

DSA's Mutual Aid Committee Members will provide plenty of snacks.

If you're unable to attend but would still like to contribute, please reach out to liz2776@proton.me. We could use help with the following:

- Printing at Community Forge (DSA members only) or at home!
- Folding zines before the event (we can print the zines if needed),
- Donating ziploc or ziploc-like bags,
- Donating whistles: we have access to free 3D printed whistles, but if you have some you would like to contribute, we're happy to accept them.

Non-DSA Members are more than welcome.

Join us for our run club! RSVP for exact location.

Workers have tremendous power to fight back against a system that treats them like dirt. As socialists, we believe the workplace is a key site of struggle that connects members of the working class and shows them the collective power they have to win a better world.
Pittsburgh DSA supports labor organizing through:
• Solidarity with workers (Supporting their picket lines, rallies, and other calls to action)
• Helping to mentor workers looking to organize their workplaces (through EWOC)
• Connecting socialists and union members who want to make their unions stronger, militant fighting organizations
• Developing and training our members and the community.

**Please note that the Labor Committee usually meets the 4th Monday of every month, but in August we are meeting on the 5th Monday**

Pittsburgh DSA hosts a monthly happy hour for workers to gather, build bonds across workplaces, and talk about organizing. Bring a co-worker, invite your unionized friends and your yet-to-be-organized friends, and enjoy the solidarity!
