Look - we get it. Not everyone is able to join up and pay dues.
If you cannot spare the money, perhaps you are not getting fairly paid for your work!
Make a commitment to participate in everything MPFA that you can -
use a sunshade - wear a pin or branded item - come to meetings
let your voice be heard and your-self be seen.

Why Join MPFA?We represent ALL part-time faculty, including instructors, librarians, & counselors.
The best way to show the district your support for our bargaining team is to be a paid & active member of MPFA.
If you are not able to join at this time - then commit to participate fully in any and all MPFA outreach activities including meetings, surveys, and anything for part-timers that the college offers. |
WE DESERVE SALARY PARITY

It’s time for all of us to step up!
We truly cannot do this without YOUR help.
At least 60% of us need to be members in order for the district to take us seriously.

Where do your dues go?
| dues_2023-2024.pdf |
$35.48 monthly, 8 months per year (Oct-Dec & Feb-May)
NOTE: CTA (State) dues include a $20 Voluntary Dues Contribution to support CTA advocacy and the CTA Foundation for Teaching and Learning. Members not wishing to contribute may request a refund but you have to contact CTA directly. Neither the college nor MPFA can make this request for you.
MPFA (local) pays stipends to the board and negotiating team out of our funds that derive from our dues & grants that we receive. (While all board members are volunteers, beginning Fall 2023 each board member is now paid a stipend of $350 per semester.) The president of MPFA is paid a stipend by the college not from our treasury. We apply for grants whenever available to help offset any membership development costs our chapter incurs (things like food and prizes for meetings and gatherings and "swag" such as the sun visors).
Other costs include: secure, CTA approved elections and the web site/domain address have yearly fees.
- MPFA (Local) receives $68.20
- CTA/CCA (State) receives $146.10
- NEA receives $69.50
