Organizations

The CHAAD Project  (Chicago Hospitality Accountability & Advocacy Database) was created by hospitality workers in Chicago to challenge the systems of abuse that harm our industry. From wage theft and harassment to toxic workplace cultures, CHAAD empowers restaurant and bar workers to demand change.

Through organizing, education, and transnational solidarity, CHAAD is building a movement rooted in accountability — not punishment, but transformation. Because healing the industry starts with listening, responding, and committing to do better.

This is not just resistance. It’s a reconstruction.

MAJC is a thriving community of hospitality professionals dedicated to helping you succeed. We serve every member of the hospitality community including those owning, managing, and working in restaurants, bars, cafes, hotels, and resorts.

The Latino Restaurant Association (LRA) supports and promotes restaurateurs, small businesses and the entire Latino restaurant community to ensure the equitable economic growth of the sector.  The Latino restaurant community is strong in Los Angeles and coming together for critical issues in our business community allows everyone to thrive. LRA community members come together to network with industry pros, market their brand and learn new ways of making their business more efficient. We are committed to going above and beyond for our members and community.
