As current residents and fellows at Loma Linda University Health (LLUH), we believe it is important for each person to have their voice heard. We have faced challenges ourselves and agree that there need to be major changes at LLUH to support us in providing excellent, high-quality care to the underserved in this region of California. We also believe it is imperative that we fully understand the risks involved with unionization and are properly informed prior to making a lasting decision regarding union representation for us and our future colleagues. This website is an attempt to gather resources we have found through personal research.
