ME (Mission: Educate)

ME (Mission: Educate) empowers Black, immigrant women by connecting them with services that tear down the barriers toward economic security. This project advocates for equal employment rights by linking women of Haitian/ Afro-Caribbean/Afro-Latina descent to social services and providing educational opportunities that focus on employment rights.

Services include:

  • One-on-one navigational case management services
  • One-on-one legal services consultations
  • One-on-one support in applying for public benefits
  • Attorney-led educational sessions on employment rights

The project guarantees awareness of employment rights information through the dissemination of culturally appropriate and gender-specific public education materials and outreach events.

ME (Mission: Educate) also trains community members to be able to provide education on employment rights to women through capacity-building sessions.

To access legal services through our contracted partner, Trial Lawyers of Florida, call (561) 288 – 8366 or email officeassistant@tlfla.com.
