Employees of Camp Recovery Center, local politicians and representatives from local unions marched on the corner of Mount Hermon Road and Glen Canyon Road this afternoon in the latest public display in the workers effort to unionize.
Leaders from the Service Employees International Union have organized the workers and lead the negotiations. Employees last picketed in front of their Scotts Valley workplace on Dec. 16 and the latest protest marks one year of negotiations between the two partties.
Organizers say talks are progressing with management at Camp Recovery in their efforts to agree on healthcare and wages.
Camp Recovery Center is owned by CRC Health Group, a national company that runs more than 140 rehab centers. Camp offers an intensive 30-day course of treatment for adults and often releases them with post-treatment support programs.
