This study investigates the effectiveness of structured union out reach activities at manufacturing extension centers. An analysis of inter view and survey data from three centers that participated in a labor out reach pilot program indicates that while the program was successful in increasing union leader awareness of the extension services, several struc tural and political obstacles limited its overall effectiveness. Union out reach programs were most successful at centers that engaged in long-term change interventions, integrated labor outreach into their overall opera tions, had local/regional union support for the program, and subsidized the services offered to unions
