Imagine a future filled with collective care and workers organizing for justice and dignity!

This *new* community-driven research project between @MJHande's team + @djnontario will broaden knowledge of direct changes needed in the #homecare system.

@AliceCr63916591 Maybe the Migrants Resource Centre Canada (MRCC) might interest you? It's a registered non-profit migrant service institution which aims to empower workers through service, information and advocacy.

Our research shows that there is a clear absence of public infrastructure to support (im)migrant workers in general in Manitoba. But for (im)migrant #careworkers, who often work in private, domestic and/or unionized sectors, there are even less resources to access.

🎧[Podcast] @tungohan, Jhoey Dulaca of @MWACCanada, and Chris Ramsaroop of @j4mw share the barriers and challenges #migrantworkers face once they are forced to move to Canada. Many leave their home countries for a better life, but actually face years apart from their loved ones.

In this episode of Courage My Friends, migrant workers activists Ethel Tungohan, Jhoey Dulaca, and Chris Ramsaroop discuss the unfair treatment of migrant workers in Canada. @j4mw @tungohan

‼️ question Chris (@j4mw) posed is one that our team reflects on:

"Who benefits from the system of #migrantlabor in Canada, especially in terms of what was happening during COVID-19?" We need to look closer at the distribution and outreach for funding given to migrant workers.

Crucial to the success of this project is our partnership with the migrant justice group, #MigranteManitoba (a member of @migrantecanada) and employing a community-based, participatory research process to connect with home care workers.

🔎After our community forum on Sept 10, we're pretty excited about this @mfl_ohc webinar on Tuesday, Sept 20. Our Principal Investigator @MJHande will talk more about the workplace/work life experiences of Manitoba-based immigrant home care workers we interviewed for our project.

[Mary Jean Hande (she/her) @MJHande]

On Sept 10, #MigranteManitoba and me will have an online forum on our @SSHRC_CRSH study. We invite migrant advocates and migrant workers to join us as we develop an understanding on how we can advance justice for im/migrant #homecare workers.
