SUMMARY:Faith Labor Breakfast
DESCRIPTION:Worker Justice Wisconsin’s annual Faith Labor Breakfast is a time for labor and faith communities to gather and share our collective passion for worker justice.  \nThis year’s theme is “Sprouting the Seeds of Solidarity.” Just like trees in a forest\, we grow together in unity to create a world where every worker is treated with dignity and respect by their employers and have a real voice in the workplace. \nSprouting the Seeds of Solidarity requires nurturing\, patience\, and love\, but the harvest is well worth the struggle. \nAs we move forward in 2024\, Worker Justice Wisconsin aims to intensify the wage theft campaign through targeted door-knocking and community trainings\, expand collective action efforts in the construction industry\, and support worker-owned cooperatives while strengthening partnerships with faith\, labor\, and community organizations. \nJoin us at our Annual Faith Labor Breakfast to learn more about our fight and how you can support this vital work. Together\, we can nurture the seeds of solidarity and harvest a future where every every worker is treated with the dignity and respect they deserve. \nRegister now!
