I request and voluntarily authorize Child Care Providers United California("CCPU-CA"), a joint partnership of SEIU and AFSCME and its successors or assigns, to act as my representative in collective bargaining with respect to my subsidy payments, and other terms and conditions of my work as a child care provider, and as my exclusive representative where authorized by law. I also request and voluntarily accept membership in CCPU-CA and SEIU Local 521("Local 521"). This means I will receive the benefits and abide by the obligations of membership set forth in the Constitutions and Bylaws of CCPU-CA, Local 521, and the Service Employees International Union("SEIU"). My membership will be continuous, unless I resign by providing notice to Local 521 via U.S. Mail (or other method permitted by Local 521's policies). I know that membership in CCPU-CA and Local 521 is voluntary and is not a condition of my work as a childcare provider, and that I can decline to join without reprisal.

This authorization is voluntary and is not a condition of my work as a child care provider, and I can decline to agree to it without reprisal. I understand that all members benefit from everyone's commitments because they help to build a strong union that is able to plan for the future.
