Because Only Together We Can.
Building Power and Self-Determination with Black and brown women workers, tenants, and families in Miami.
Who We Are
The Miami Workers Center is a frontline strategy and action center building the power and self-determination of oppressed people in South Florida by amplifying the demands and developing the leadership of Black and brown women workers, tenants, and families. We employ an intersectional approach to our organizing, linking gender, race, and class in our analysis and in all of our programs.
What We Do
We Organize.
We organize with underpaid workers and tenants demanding power, self-determination, and dignity on the job and in our neighborhoods.
We Build Leaders.
We develop the leadership of working-class people to advocate for themselves, their families, and communities.
We Strengthen.
We strengthen grassroots movements in South Florida and beyond. We believe that our movements are more powerful when working-class women of color are able to participate and contribute in their full dignity.
We Educate.
We educate our members and communities on our rights as workers and tenants and the power of our solidarity.
We Provide Care.
We provide a caring community to working-class women of color in our journeys to heal and transform our lives.
We Win.
We believe the path to working-class power is by building strong organizations that are willing to stand up and fight back for what we deserve.

Being part of the Miami Workers Center has been fundamental for my development as a leader, I learned about my rights and my value as a worker and I’m part of a community of strong women, where I feel safe and secure.
Porgie "Gigi" Town
I believe in the Miami Workers Center because I believe housing is a human right. I want everyone in Miami to share that value so that we can have real equality. We can’t have that if our people are dying without a home while others have so many homes they don’t even know what to do with them!
