Since the last CFS Caseload Management Forum OCEA members and staff have been working hard to organize the workplace to continue to raise our voices for change.

With the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and most recent surge of the virus, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the traditional in-person 2022 OCEA Health & Welfare Trust Health Fair scheduled for Thursday, Sept. 8, 2022. Though we have been excited and preparing for many months to bring you the first in-person Health Fair since 2019, your safety is of the utmost concern to us and takes priority during these times.
