Abstract
This article discusses sociological research and practice with Latina immigrant women who do paid domestic work. Community activism and participant observation methods were integral parts of the research process, and the study findings were later used in an innovative information and outreach campaign aimed at Latina immigrant domestic workers. Research on immigrant women and work, scholarship on paid domestic work; and the emergence of the immigrant rights movement contextualize the discussion of the research and the applied focus.
