OEA Legal Support

Our Legal Defense Program stands up for you when you can't stand up for yourself.
OEA Vice President Enrique Farrera
More members means a stronger union. And as a stronger OEA, we can more effectively bargain for good wages and benefits, so we can focus on our students. That's why I'm proud to be a member of OEA.
Quote by: Enrique Farrera, OEA Vice President

Together we're stronger. Together we're heard.
