What drives us

Sisters in the Brotherhood is an integral part of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters, not a separate women’s union.

Our goal is to encourage women within our UBC to share, support and learn from each other’s experiences, use that knowledge to grow both personally and professionally, and become more actively involved at all levels.

Sisters in the Brotherhood is important to the future of our union, because we are the leaders, ambassadors and role models, who promote union carpentry as a career for more women.


Members

Our members represent a wide range of skilled trades, represented by the Carpenters Union:

Carpenters, Millwrights, Stair Builders, Lathers, Bridge and Dock Carpenters, Divers, Pile Drivers, Wood and Resilient Floor Layers, Carpet Installers, Shinglers, Siders, Insulators, Acoustic and Drywall Installers, Show, Display and Exhibition Workers, Terrazo Finishers, Granite Cutters, Mill Cabinet, and all those who are represented by the UBC, that may not be listed here.

Our card carrying members range from apprentices to certified journeywomen who entered the trade in the 1970's. They include females fresh out of highschool, and females who are in retirement. They include superintendents, foreman, job stewards, instructors, organizers, officers of the union, master carpenters, construction managers, and are not limited to the positions listed here.


Organization

Sisters In The Brotherhood was established in 2002 under the direction of the United Brotherhood Of Carpenters, for the sole purpose of providing mentorship, support, networking, recruitment and retention of skilled TRADESWOMEN in the Carpenter's Union.
