The East Bay Alliance for a Sustainable Economy is a labor-community alliance that advances economic and social justice by building power and raising standards for working families. EBASE envisions an economy that works for working people.  EBASE is leading the charge to transform the East Bay economy and build a movement to end working poverty - using a unique combination of research, coalition building, policy advocacy, and leadership development.  In our vision, all workers ­ from nurses to teachers to janitors, housekeepers and grocery clerks ­ earn enough to live in dignity. All work is valued, and all workers enjoy respect and a voice on the job. Prosperity and economic opportunity are broadly shared, and economic growth creates family-supporting jobs.
