Description: Save "As a result of more than 20 years of community organizing experience, Sergio Sosa – along with Latino/a workers, social and religious institutions, and hometown associations - formed the Heartland Workers Center (HWC) in January of 2009. After listening to hundreds of stories from workers in meatpacking, construction, restaurants, and cleaning, a vision was born to create a new model of organizing that entails finding and developing leaders, training them on workers’ rights, and finding effective methods of participating in the civic society. The HWC was incorporated and officially became a non-profit organization [501©3] in April of 2010." - from website, 2017.06.26
