Dana is also a member of the Washington State Labor & Industry advisory board for ending the exclusion of domestic workers eligibility for workers compensation. \nDana and her partner are East Coast transplants in Seattle who are raising their child far away from family and support networks\, and deeply appreciate the domestic workers in their lives who make it possible to hold together a household and work full-time.

He also serves on the City of Seattle’s Domestic Workers Standards Board. Jordan and his husband also enjoy taking advantage of the amazing outdoor opportunities around Seattle\, especially skiing (cross-country and downhill)\, running\, cycling\, and hiking. \nSilvia Gonzalez\nSilvia González is a mother and has been an immigrant domestic worker for about 15 years. Silvia has combined her work of cleaning houses with work as a staff member of Casa Latina for the last five years.
