The Independent Drivers Guild (IDG) is a nonprofit affiliate of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAMAW) bringing together app-based drivers in New York City to win better pay, benefits, and dignity on the job. We believe in the power of collective action to win change. Since our launch in 2016, our campaigns have put millions of dollars in drivers pockets, first through a campaign that established the right to be able to accept tips through apps, and next through landmark regulations that  established the first-ever pay floor in the industry.

We are now building on this foundation of economic gains with a program to promote mental health and wellness among For-Hire Vehicle drivers in partnership with the Black Car Fund. Our Mental Health and Wellness Program provides a lifeline for drivers who are in crisis and supports drivers with a suite of preventative measures including individual, couples and counseling, accessing social services, and raising awareness of the importance of mental health. 

We are seeking an LMSW to join our team part-time. The right candidate will have a can-do attitude and a passion for helping low-wage workers gain power to transform reality through collective action.
