Formerly called | National Interfaith Committee for Worker Justice |
Interfaith Worker Justice (IWJ) was a nonprofit and nonpartisan interfaith advocacy network comprising more than 60 worker centers and faith and labor organizations that advanced the rights of working people through grassroots, worker-led campaigns and engagement with diverse faith communities and labor allies. IWJ affiliates took action to shape policy at the local, state and national levels.
As of June 2017[update], IWJ was governed by a 36-member board of directors.[1]
IWJ closed at the end of 2021. [2]
