Workshops & Leadership Schools
Introduction
The Leadership Development Program helps worker and community organizations conduct their work more strategically. Among our many classes are Strategic Campaigns Workshop; Strategic Research Workshop; a Lead Organizer Institute; the C.L. Dellums African American Leadership School; and a Spanish-language Latino Leadership Institute. We are developing a set of projects to explore the intersection of work and mass incarceration with a particular focus on the growing Black population in Contra Costa County. We also provide technical assistance to worker centers, unions and community organizations focused on worker issues.
