The Saint Paul LSRC is a charitable nonprofit organization that assists and advocates for union members in the East Metro area. Its staff members, part of the AFL-CIO Community Services program, connect union members with much needed community resources and help local unions provide their members with important services, such as strike and lay-off preparation trainings. By participating in Labor Bowl, you will be giving back to our community and supporting an organization that supports the work of organized labor.
