About Us
Community Labor United’s mission is to drive forward strategic campaigns with grassroots organizations and labor unions that stabilize and strengthen working-class families and communities of color in Greater Boston. Through a program of coalition building, research and policy development, public education, and grassroots mobilization, we advance policies that promote quality jobs, secure healthcare, affordable housing, and environmental justice for all. With our national partner, the PowerSwitch Action network, we are strengthening local organizations that work in solidarity throughout the country. We fight against corporate interests by expanding and strengthening the voices of everyday people in shaping the economy, government, and public goods in the local communities we and our partners serve. Together, we are building an inclusive democracy, a people’s economy, and prioritizing the needs of low-income families.
