About 1000 Strong

We are a coalition of labor unions and community organizations on a mission to create long-lasting change in the Black community. We believe the best way to combat economic injustice is to ensure there is equitable economic recovery in Los Angeles from the current crisis - one that has disproportionately impacted Black communities. For centuries, Black workers have failed to earn a fair return on their labor investments, and to that we say, no more. We are well-prepared to advance our civil rights efforts to secure labor and economic equity, now.

1000 Strong is not simply a solution, it is overdue.

 

We’re working to place 1000 Black workers in public sector jobs by 2022.
