We believe everyone deserves fair treatment, regardless of race, ethnicity, or country of origin. Unfortunately, immigrants are often excluded from other programs that offer legal services to people with low incomes. Because they may lack access to legal protections, immigrants are more likely to become victims of abuse by unscrupulous businesses and employers. Such violations undermine the well-being of everyone in the state.

Legal representation is a lifeline when there are high-stakes consequences for all family members involved. Make a gift today!

The Workers’ Rights Project is fighting to make sure everyone in North Carolina has a quality job and the support they need when out of a job. We strive to enforce and expand policies that ensure safe workplaces, fair treatment, a living wage, and a strong safety net in times of hardship.
