In 2002, Washington State Jobs with Justice held a very successful second annual Honoree Dinner on Friday, October 25 from 6:00 to 9:30 pm at Mt. Zion Baptist Church (1634 19th Ave E - corner of 19th & Madison in Seattle). This year, we honored:
 - Lupe Gamboa, Vice-President & Regional Director of the United Farm Workers, for fighting for immigrant workers rights, global justice, and winning the first farmworker union contract in our state.
- Organized State Employees for winning historic collective bargaining after an over 25 year battle.
- King County Labor Council Union Cities Program for partnering with JwJ to lead the nation among labor councils in fighting for workers' rights through street and political action, popular education, and coalition building.
- Mary Bass, Seattle School Board member, for passionately standing up for low wage workers and workers of color, members of the Teamsters and Machinists.
