RESOURCES FOR STRIKE-IMPACTED WORKERS

The GMS Benefits Committee recognizes that the ongoing strikes pose a challenging time for professionals in this industry right now, particularly those working freelance in Film & TV. Music Supervisors do not have a union and the AMPTP and Netflix continue to refuse to recognize a Music Supervisor union. We continue in our fight to unionize, and GMS fully supports this mission. To find out more please scan this QR Code (https:// linktr.ee/musicneedssupervision).

For anyone currently affected by the strikes, find some resources below:

The Entertainment Community Fund provides a safety net for entertainment professionals, including emergency financial assistance, mental health resources, and support groups (non-union welcome)
