Power to the people.
Empowering communities to make change.
RCWA is a worker-led organization dedicated to empowering, educating, and organizing refugee and immigrant workers from the food industry to address their needs and concerns in the workplace and in the communities where they reside
RCWA focuses on two joint issues: workers’ rights and community action
We strive to make improvements in the communities we serve and in the lives of our constituents through empowering workers and their families through education, resources, and community action.
Ready to take a stand?
Join us in our fight for equality by volunteering time, knowledge, or resources. Your contribution directly impacts the community we serve as we strive for workers’ rights.
