Blog #7 CP And Local Units

       Throughout our time working with Maria, she did not specify certain government units that interfered with the center. What Maria did tell us were the various organizations that are involved with the organization. For example, such organizations include the Gardner Medical Clinic, Stanford Legal Clinic, East Palo Alto Legal Clinic, Santa Clara University and Notre Dame High School. Each of these organizations play very important roles in the center that contribute to their success and message. For example, the workers have weekly access to medical check ups. This is because the Gardner Medical Clinic sends a trailer with professional health care providers to check on the workers' health; all free of charge. Additionally, the Stanford Legal Clinic, assists workers when they encounter legal disputes. Although these agencies are from different sectors, they all contribute in maintaining the Workers Center healthy and operational. Therefore, these organizations are vital to the center's success.
