Greater Lawndale Community Resource Guide
Introduction Heading link
The Greater Lawndale Healthy Work Project is examining how people in Little Village/South Lawndale and North Lawndale experience work and how work impacts their health and the health of their community. Some aspects of this research explores issues of racism, discrimination, exploitation, and harassment at work. We understand that talking about work, especially in our current socio-political climate, can be stressful. We have created this guide to connect people who need resources related to work and health to resources in their community or in the Chicago area.
El Proyecto Trabajo Saludable en Greater Lawndale examina cómo las personas en La Villita y en el Sur y Norte de Lawndale experimentan el trabajo y cómo el trabajo impacta su salud y la salud de sus comunidades. Algunos de los aspectos investigados son el racismo, la discriminación, la explotación y el acoso en el trabajo. Entendemos que hablar acerca del trabajo, especialmente en nuestro clima sociopolítico actual, puede ser estresante. Hemos creado esta guía para conectar a las personas que necesitan recursos relativos al trabajo y a la salud con los recursos existentes en sus comunidades o en el área de Chicago.
