It is time to celebrate a year of victory and power building. This is RI Jobs with Justice chance to honor those who make RI's Working Class stronger, and show a commitment to building a just economy that centers people over profit. This year we will be honoring:

Emily Jones RI Interfaith Coalition to Reduce Poverty. Her work in forging the coalition into an agile and principled organization.

The worker organizers of IUPAT, LiUNA, and the Team at Fuerza Laboral particularly those who have worked on drives at Goodison Shipyard in Quonset. Their brave and relentless commitment to improving the lives and safety of all workers is a model we should all strive for.

The Step Up Coalition this youth led organization has organized and worked for true police accountability in Providence. The creativity and relentless adherence to democracy and inclusion points us to a path to building a new and better society.

Lastly but certainly not least UFCW 328 and the workers of Eastland Foods and Bob's Tires. The leadership of UFCW shows true vision and Working Class excellence in building a labor movement that is intersectional and winning. Proving for one and all to see that organizing against sexism, racism, and xenophobia builds stronger unions and resilient workers.

Steve Tollman, President of the MA AFL-CIO will be delivering the keynote address.
