CUPE 101 is a community organization located in Central London on Central Ave that serves as a resource for union members and the public. The organization works to support the interests of workers who provide essential public services, such as keeping communities clean and safe. It focuses on defending public services against understaffing and privatization while promoting the importance of publicly delivered services. The organization provides various resources and engagement opportunities, including information on the "Your Job, Your Community, Your Vote" campaign. This initiative aims to empower CUPE locals and their members to become active participants in defending public services and identifying municipal candidates who support worker-friendly councils.

The organization represents a broad range of workers and involves various local entities, including the County of Middlesex, the London Middlesex Housing Corporation, and the Middlesex-London Health Unit.
