New York City Day Labor Coalotion
Across the country, job centers for day laborers
have emerged as a best practice model for improving working conditions,
providing education and training, and facilitating community relations. Led by
the
Latin
American Workers Project, the New York City Day Labor Coalition is
advocating for the creation of several pilot job centers, administered by
community groups with city funding. The Brennan Center is a member of this
coalition and has testified before
the New York City Council and
the New York State Assembly on its
behalf.
