  • We provide legal training, technical assistance, and support to legal aid orgs that serve low-wage and immigrant workers.

  • Our research highlights occupational health & safety trends, notes emerging hazards, and documents movement victories.

  • Our interactive trainings are designed to build worker leadership and power. Topics include Hazard Identification and Health & Safety Rights.

  • Our approach to worker health & safety is grounded in creative collaborations with organizations throughout California.
