The Kansas City Worker Justice Center is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization formed to empower low-income workers in the Kansas City metropolitan area by eliminating unjust employment practices.

At our monthly Worker's Rights Clinics volunteer attorneys, students and other community members provide free assistance to workers with employment disputes, primarily involving unpaid wages. Workers are advised of their options, possible remedies, referred to other sources of assistance when necessary, educated about their rights and ways to avoid future problems. Workers are encouraged to be active in the resolution of their problems and in the creation of a more just labor environment.

Clinics are held on the third Monday evening of every month, from 5 to 8 p.m. at El Centro, Inc., 650 Minnesota Ave., Kansas City, Kansas.

And quarterly on the first Thursday of the month, from 6 to 8 p.m. at Lutheran Church of the Resurrection, 9100 Mission Road, Prairie Village, Kansas.

KCWJC offers great volunteer opportunities--both during and between clinics--for Spanish-speakers, lawyers, students, and anyone who believes in justice for workers. To volunteer or for more information, click in the individual tabs above.
