Join the SF Caravan to #ProtectAllWorkers
On Friday, April 24, join San Francisco city workers on a caravan from the REI parking lot on Brannon to the SF Emergency Operations Center at the Moscone Center. We are demanding universal testing and protective equipment (PPE) for all front line employees doing the important work of serving SF residents during this pandemic.
At the Moscone Center, we will park in front and along the building. We’ll honk and chant with our windows rolled down to show support for 1021 members across the city and demand proper PPE and testing.
Caravan Timeline
- 11:30 AM – Meet at REI parking lot 840 Brannan Street to prepare
- 12:00 PM – Caravan to the Emergency Operations Center at the Moscone Center at 747 Howard.
- 12:45 PM – Action ends.
This caravan is a CAR ACTION. Participants are expected to stay in their vehicles for the duration of the action. We will be observing social distancing and safety precautions. Everyone should bring a face covering.

“The crisis of PPE shortages at our clinics has been averted thanks to solidarity by 1021 members at SF Art Institute,” said Julia Klems, HepC Care Coordinator at HealthRIGHT 360.

Over the last month, we have seen the outbreak of a global pandemic that is unprecedented in most of our lifetimes. I know how the uncertainty of our situation has left many of us feeling scared and unsure of what the future holds. But I am proud of how SEIU 1021 leaders and staff have risen to the challenge, and we are working tirelessly to protect the health, safety, and economic wellbeing of members during this time.
I’m looking forward to sharing the details of that work with you all tomorrow evening and hope that you’ll join us.
