Mission and programs · 2024
Mission
Fuerza Laboral is a workers' rights center whose mission is to shift the balance of power in our economy in favor of workers by educating, training, and organizing workers to become community leaders; taking direct action to recover unpaid wages and improve workplace conditions; organizing to win institutional changes that will better prevent injustices; and, with our Cooperative Incubator Project, constructing a network of cooperative-owned businesses that will provide living wage employment as an alternative to the low- wage, exploitative jobs typically reserved for immigrants and people of color
-
In 2024, Fuerza Laboral deepened its impact by expanding worker education and leadership training; advancing campaigns for wage justice; scaling its co-op incubator work to build worker-owned businesses with a network of more than 25 cooperatives across RI; and forming partnerships.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week.

On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
