The Evergreen State College Labor Education & Research Center, a public service initiative of The Evergreen State College, provides a safe forum for workers, community members and Evergreen students to look at their lives and work through the lenses of labor history and political economics.

The Center provides a place to think about what a movement for positive change in society should or could look like.

We develop educational programs in collaboration with organized labor and labor support groups to address relevant issues to worker's unions and work lives.

To that end, the Labor Center works with an advisory committee to develop credit and non-credit educational programs for union and community members.

Center sponsored programs examine the causes, consequences, and solutions to economic injustice, racism, sexism, and homophobia.
