PEOPLE Centered Research
Centering Policy, Evidence, & Outreach to Promote Labor & Environmental Research
Our mission is to partner with researchers, policymakers, and practitioners to improve policies and advance health access for all people. We promote community outreach and participatory research that center’s the voices and experiences of workers, and facilitate systemic and sustainable change to improve labor and environmental conditions in which people work and live.
“The best way to tell someone’s story is to let them tell it themselves.”
