The Gerry Brittain Education Project is an initiative of DC Jobs with Justice designed to strengthen local organizing and build power among working people in the District of Columbia. Named in honor of Geraldine “Gerry” Birttain, social worker and long time community activist, this education project incorporates skill building and political education into monthly trainings lasting between 50 minutes and 2 hours. Gerry never passed up the opportunity to support a union cause, taking on hotel owners, parking lot companies, laundries, building owners or grocery store chains. Trainings are free and open to the public; locations rotate. For a schedule of upcoming trainings, more information contact DC JwJ at dterry@dclabor.org or 202.974.8281.
