Embracing the Year Ahead
Welcome to 2024, a year brimming with possibilities and opportunities for positive change! 2023 saw major shifts towards collective worker power and employees advocating for their rights nationwide. As we step into this new chapter, we can’t help but feel the excitement and energy of creating our Year of Unity. A fitting title to honor our twenty years of championing equity for all in the Bay Area.
This year, we’re not just marking time but making it count. With a renewed focus on collective worker power and an unwavering commitment to our mission, we’re gearing up for impactful initiatives. Our upcoming strategy launch is set to redefine how we champion quality and empowered employment, ensuring our work aligns seamlessly with our core values. The Building Worker Power report, born from vital partnerships with workforce training programs, will spotlight their invaluable contributions to our community.
But that’s not all—enter our Funder Community of Practice, a space that embodies the spirit of participatory philanthropy. This year, we’ll explore the critical role of worker organizing and organized labor in economic justice. While we introduce new elements, our steadfast dedication to bringing statewide job quality remains unwavering.
As we embark on this exciting journey, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to our supporters, advocates, and community partners who have been instrumental in our 20-year journey. Thank you for your unwavering commitment to equity, collaboration, and pursuing a Bay Area where everyone can thrive. Here’s to 20 years of impact and many more ahead!
In Solidarity,
Brianna, Janelle, + Rob
