WHO WE ARE
The Farmworker Association of Florida’s long-standing mission is to build power among farmworker and rural low-income communities, to respond to and gain control over the social, political, economic, workplace, health, and environmental justice issues that impact their lives.
WHAT WE DO
Agroecology
We view the necessary change to the inequities inherent in the current food system in which we live to be rooted at the community level.
Worker Justice
We work to inform immigrant farmworkers of their rights and engage them in decision making and policy setting processes that impact their lives.
Health & Environmental Justice
We provide community education and influence policy related to health and safety protections for farmworkers.
Civic Engagement
We organize and build the skills of farmworkers to address injustice in the workplace and the impacts of globalization and mechanization.
