Cincinnati Interfaith Committee for Worker Justice
The committee’s mission is to educate and mobilize the religious

has initiated the development of a worker center that would provide a
place for workers to receive advocacy about workplace issues, a legal
clinic focused on employment matters, and a safe space for workers to
gather to discuss their workplace experience. This Center will require a
great deal of volunteer support.. Contact: Sr. Monica McGloin
