Membership in the AFT Colorado is usually established by joining an AFT local, a council of locals or, in some cases, a statewide affiliate. Most AFT Colorado locals are organized around a specific employer (such as a school district, a hospital or a municipality). Membership requests are handled by our affiliates and not at the national level, except for associate membership.
