Were you waiting for PDR funding to reopen? 👀

Good news: we’ve partially replenished the PDR fund for the summer semester.

If your claim from the 2025/2026 academic year was denied because funding ran out, you may now be able to submit or resubmit it.

The fund will fully reset in September for the 2026/2027 academic year, and we’ll be bargaining for an increase this fall.

💬 What could additional PDR funding help you access? Let us know in the comments.

❗️Notice to Unit 2 Members ❗️
