NAPE Members at Choices for Youth take strike action
Employees at Choices for Youth in St. John's have officially begun strike action.
The strike impacts nine employees.
The NAPE employees have set up picket lines at the Choices For Youth Headquarters on Duckworth Street as well as at The Lilly on Bond Street.
The Lilly is a 14-unit congregate living supportive housing facility for youth operated by Choices for Youth.
NAPE President Jerry Earle says while the employer appears progressive, empathetic, and compassionate, he has seen no evidence of that in their approach to bargaining.
