Heartland Workers Center

The Heartland Workers Center develops and organizes leaders, promotes workers’ rights, and fosters a culture of civic engagement in order to build power and create change with immigrant and underrepresented communities.

We use a Core Team model to identify and activate leaders, using 10 steps to community organizing: 1. Build Relationships 2. Investigate and Listen 3. Research Issues. 4. Delivery of Findings. 5. Plan of Action. 6. Execution Outside of HWC. 7. Evaluate. 8 Communicate Results. 9. Celebrate. 10. Assess and Wonder. Each core team concentrates on specific topic to plan, develop, execute, and experience the result of coalition building towards one single goal.
