Workers United of Western North Carolina



Our Strategy for creating just workplaces includes: Organizing, Educating and Advocating

  • Organizing:
  • We encourage workers to utilize their right to organize to improve workplace conditions.
  • We support community members to take a leadership role in advocating for their own and other workers' rights.
  • We work with the faith based groups and the general community to hold employers accountable for basic worker rights.
  • Link: Pilgrimage for Justice and Peace - In loving memory of Juan Ignacio Montes
  • Educating:
  • We host popular education workshops to inform people of their rights as workers and impart tools to resolve workplace conflicts.
  • We raise awareness in our communities about issues affecting low-wage workers and how to become involved in the movement for worker justice.
  • Advocating:
  • We advocate for workers whose rights have been violated and work with them to respond to injustice.
