2022 Membership Drive

published by Cheryl Grossman on Wed, 07/20/2016 - 00:23

UAPA began in 2004 and continues to help elect progressive candidates to all levels of government.  We do this by organizing educational programs, debate watch parties, our website and newsletter, as well as by notifying volunteers of opportunities to help campaigns, making contributions, and offering yard signs and bumper stickers that enable progressives to “take a stand”.

    Join UAPA for the ReSisters presentation of the 2022 Courage of Conviction Awards

    published by Cheryl Grossman on Sat, 07/23/2022 - 13:19

    When times get tough one can lose sight of the patriotism revealed in the day-to-day work accomplished by leaders and activists. The people who win some battles but lose too many and yet get up and work even harder the next day: thus, the genesis of the ReSisters of Central Ohio Courage of Conviction Awards.

    The Upper Arlington Progressive Action (UAPA) Board recently voted to endorse two candidates for the two seats available on the UA School Board. The selections were made based on responses to a set of ten questions (below) sent to all candidates. Neither Lou Sauter nor Liz Easton responded to our questions.

     

    We recommend Nidhi Satiani be elected and Carol Mohr be reelected.

    Special Guests for July Book Club Meeting

    published by Cheryl Grossman on Sun, 07/25/2021 - 18:16
    Phil Ennin, who was CEO at Community Hospitals and Wellness Centers at the time The Hospital was written, has agreed to join our discussion of the book. Without him, there would have been no book. He allowed the author to have almost complete access to the hospital's inner workings.
