Enlace
Enlace is a strategic alliance of low-wage worker centers, unions, and community organizations in Mexico and in the U.S. We partner with our member organizations in international campaigns to motivate abusive multi-sector transnational corporations to treat workers and communities with dignity and respect. Enlace uses an integrated approach to organizing, creating unique campaign strategies while developing systems strengthening organizations internally. Our strategies often cross industrial and sector lines for reasons relating to both workforce development and campaign strategy.
In addition, the Enlace Institute presents trainings in strategic organization development that were developed over the many years of learning through our campaigns. Our collaborative brainstorming processes are useful for virtually all work groups in base-building organizations.

NDLON Asamblea 19th- 23rd
ON THE ROAD TO JUSTICE: NI UN PASO ATRAS! - 6TH ASAMBLEA NACIONAL
Welcome to the Registration & Information Page
From February 19th through the 23rd, delegations of day laborers and advocates from throughout the country will convene at NDLON’s 6th National Convention in Los Angeles, CA to share experiences and seek new solutions to the local and national challenges that impact their lives.
The 6th National Day Laborer Convention comes during a period of great challenges and unprecedented opportunities for the day laborer community. As you know, the rights of immigrant workers are increasingly under attack across the country. At the same time, however, innovative organizing and educating endeavors are empowering the day laborers to defend their basic human, civil and labor rights. This is a living testimony that the most vulnerable, the most oppressed among the less privileged are setting the example in the everlasting effort to build a more humane, just and safer world.
At the convention, NDLON’s member organizations will connect and share experiences and best practices on local and national campaigns. As the highest authority within NDLON’s governance structure, delegates will also make important decisions about NDLON’s major programmatic areas. Delegates will also be immersed in other valuable experiences such as leadership development trainings, alliance building, community actions and cultural celebrations.
Registration Deadline is January 13th @ 5:00pm.
Invite only note:
The 6th National Day Laborer Convention is an invitation-only event, open to NDLON members and allies. NDLON members & asamblea presenters can obtain a discount code from Lorena Gamboa to waive the registration fees.
