Through UCLA’s 2024 Labor Summer Research Program (LSRP), we center workers and learners as active knowledge producers, not merely research subjects. This study provides an interactive collection of data-driven insights, interviews, and firsthand stories illuminating systemic issues such as financial instability, inflexible schedules, and limited career alignment.
