Worker Wellness Covid Workplace Outreach Project

We will continue our partnership with Earthlodge to ensure that Black workers have resources for wellness at work, a high priority for Black workers navigating the challenges of Covid-19. Our outreach activities over the last two years have included text and phone banking, community listening sessions, tabling at in-person events. We are also actively advocating for the expansion of CWOP funds to non-Covid related worker rights; and developing a plan to institutionalize the program with long-term funding and training for Black workers.
