Sudbury Workers’ Education and Advocacy Centre

Sudbury Workers’ Education and Advocacy Centre (SWEAC) seeks to provide public legal education to workers in Sudbury and surrounding area about their workplace rights. Youth are an especially important target population. Over the past two years the organization has developed ties with social service agencies in the surrounding regions including Espanola, North Bay, Timmins, and Sault Ste. Marie. SWEAC will continue to develop partnerships in the North. SWEAC’s outreach will also focus on the local First Nations to ensure that Indigenous workers are aware of their rights and the recourse available to them.
