In the most recent edition of the union magazine, we spotlight a Dayton Correctional Institution Chapter 5725 activist Ausha Davis, who was driven to become a steward by her desire to help others. You can find Ausha's spotlight on page 9 of the Spring edition of the OCSEA Public Employee Quarterly.
“I enjoy being a steward a lot. It just keeps me going knowing that I can help people and I can say, ‘hey, if you need anything, I will assist you,” Ausha said. She highlights that being a steward isn’t all about helping members with an issue or discipline. “It’s not always a struggle,” she said. “I also have people ask me about union education benefits and things like that. I have helped people with the process of applying for their Union Education Trust benefits like I did.” Ausha is in her first semester pursuing an associate degree in accounting thanks to her annual union-negotiated UET education benefit.
