Are you and members of your congregation ready to stand up with workers to end poverty and create an economy that reflects your values? Here’s what you can do to get involved!

Join us for a Congregational Orientation! Learn more about what’s happening with the economy and more about WIN’s work! We offer these orientations regularly to help religious leaders and people of faith learn more about what’s happening in the economy; reflect on their own expectations and experiences as workers; and discover what they can do to work with low-wage workers, union members, and people of all faiths to create an economy that serves people!

Orientations Focus On Creating:

• A common understanding of the US economy
• A collective sense of our expectations, experiences, and struggles at work
• A vision of how we can unite with others across lines of race, class and religion to act for an economy that works for all
• A deeper engagement with our faith traditions that call for workers justice
• Concrete ways to get involved in the movement for worker justice in the Twin Cities

Our next orientation will happen on Thursday, September 18 at Dayton Avenue Presbyterian Church in St. Paul, (217 Mackubin Street) from 9:30 a.m.-11:30 a.m., and again from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Call Caitlin at 612-332-2055 if you want to attend, or email caitlin@workersinterfaith.org

Become a member of Workers Interfaith Network! We ask members to come out to four actions every year and pay a basic membership fee of $20. Give us your email address, and we’ll keep you informed about opportunties to take action!

Become a Member Organizer in your congregation! Recruit others in your congregation to become members of WIN and get those members involved in campaigns for worker justice! It’s a great way to work with people you worship with to make a real difference in their communities.

Adopt a campaign! Your congregation can take action to pass the Employee Free Choice Act, or join a campaign aimed at improving the lives of workers in the community
