As part of the last Memorandum of Understanding between the Dentist and Psychiatrist Unit (BU 325) and Los Angeles County, UAPD negotiated a new $400,000 training and education fund. The goal of that fund is to provide doctors with training related to health care reform. The fund is administered by a joint labor-management committee, comprised of three UAPD members and three managers, which is currently meeting to discuss the implementation of that fund. BU 325 doctors can contact Labor Representative Chris Ige at the UAPD Los Angeles office to share their ideas about how to best use the fund.
