Midwest Workers Association

The Midwest Workers Association (MWA) is a grassroots, all-volunteer organization in Chicago, dedicated to advocating for the rights and well-being of the city’s lowest-paid workers. Since its inception in 1996, MWA has focused on building community strength through organization, uniting local residents, professionals, and students to combat poverty and promote sustainable development.

With a mission to end deprivation and foster fundamental change, MWA has successfully implemented initiatives such as a year-round emergency benefit program and has campaigned against rate increases from utility companies. The organization calls for the full implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals to address issues like income inequality and climate change, ensuring that no one is left behind in the pursuit of a better future.
