Grace Reckers
Lead Northeast Organizer, OPEIU
Grace Reckers has organized restaurant workers with the Koreatown Immigrant Workers Alliance (KIWA), janitors with the Service Employees Int’l Union (SEIU), and nurses with the New York State Nurses Association (NYSNA).
Now, as Lead Northeast Organizer at OPEIU, Grace splits her time between campaigns with nonprofit employees and with tech workers to build unions in their workplaces. She worked on the Kickstarter United campaign and is a founding staff member of OPEIU’s Tech Worker Union Local 1010. While many of the tech union campaigns that Grace is working on are currently underground, she is excited for these groups to go public in the near future.
Grace is involved with the New York City branch of the Tech Workers Coalition and the DSA Tech Action Working Group, and is committed to building and supporting rank & file organizing efforts across industries.
