Success Story: National Domestic Workers-PA Chapter & Philly Black Worker Project Win The Power Act!
Since the founding of both the NDWA-PA Chapter and the Philly Black Worker Project, The Organizing Center has walked side-by-side with both organizations. From E.D. coaching to organizer training to member leadership development, we supported both organizations to:
-
Grow their membership. NDWA-PA, in particular, grew from dozens to multi-hundreds in just a few years
-
Develop campaign strategy. With our guidance, both organizations developed a sharp analysis of conditions and a pathway to victory.
-
Let members lead. Both organizations created strong leadership- development pathways, ensuring members were the ones meeting with elected officials, testifying before City Council, and developing the actions that galvanzied more participation.
The POWER Act is a groundbreaking law that sets a precedent for how cities can step in where federal labor protections have fallen short. At a time when workers across the country—particularly low-wage Black workers, immigrant workers, domestic workers, restaurant and service workers, and other low-wage laborers—face rollbacks in rights and limited paths to justice, Philadelphia is leading the way.
