True Blue 2016

We are thrilled to announce the 2016 True Blue honorees! This year the New Kings Democrats will be celebrating two groups that have displayed a dedication to elevating the standards of political and social life, as well as exceptional leadership in bettering Brooklyn and New York City. Both groups, and the individuals who are a part of them, empower people traditionally marginalized in the political process -- particularly women and immigrants.

Worker’s Justice Project has worked to help Brooklyn’s low-wage immigrant workers, including day laborers and domestic workers, gain a voice in the workplace and build strong, economically sustainable, participatory communities through organizing, education, and leadership development. From helping day laborers organize for better wages to building democratically governed worker-owned businesses, Worker’s Justice Project has been a proven leader in expanding access to decision-making process and economic justice for immigrants. NKD is honoring the organization staff and member-leaders of Worker’s Justice Project.

The Young Women's Advisory Council is a group of young women between 14 and 25 years old who have played an integral role in the shaping and success of the Young Women's Initiative: a multi-sector coalition focused improving the lives of young women in New York City by addressing racial, gender-based, and other social disparities. By centering City efforts around the voices of young cis and trans women of color, the Young Women's Advisory Council is actively creating a more inclusive and accountable public politic. They have nurtured spaces within local government in which traditionally marginalized experiences and expertise are amplified and leveraged for social change.

We hope that you will join NKD in celebrating these leaders of our progressive movement!
