At the OEERC, we believe that the most effective public education works at the grassroots level. To this end, the OEERC delivers its programming by working in partnership with community organizations (our Community Partners) that have a proven record of developing and delivering accessible public education on workplace rights, as well as a commitment to the development of peer support networks and community leaders.
