Mission

A long-term, strategic alliance of labor, community, faith-based, and student organizations working together to build greater economic power for workers and community members through employee rights at work and access to good jobs, affordable housing, healthcare, high quality public education and racial justice.

What it reported doing in 2024

Workers Rights: Through our Workers Rights program, we convene workers organizations and community groups into an alliance to advance a shared agenda for immigrant and low-wage workers. This includes developing shared strategy, participating in solidarity events and trainings with the alliances various organizations. We mobilized our members, jointly with other service organizations impacted by the mayors proposed budget cuts, to advocate together for a just budget for the city of San Francisco, one that doesnt cut essential services. In 2024 we advanced our coalition California Labor for Climate Jobs by continuing to push for good union jobs in the new energy economy, protections for workers from climate hazards such as extreme heat, supports for oil and gas workers facing industry transitions, and funding to build climate resilient infrastructure for schools.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 94% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
