Childers managed national and state campaigns for AFSCME for four years, including a victorious campaign to protect Ohio’s public workers from a Walker-style attack on collective bargaining rights. Through her roles at AFSCME and on various Democratic political campaigns, Childers hired and mentored dozens of new leaders, elevating the voices and work of women and people of color in the labor movement.
