Farmworker Association of Fl Inc.

Description

n keeping true to the mission and guiding vision, FWAF's core strategy is to help farmworkers realize their power to be effective agents of social and personal change by: validating and strengthening the experience and understanding of farmworkers;building farmworkers' capacity to participate in decision-making processes that affect their lives; raising consciousness about and advocating for farmworkers' rights and justice.

Toward this goal, FWAF's programs and activities build leadership and activist skills among low-income communities of color who are disproportionately affected by pesticide exposure/health problems, environmental contamination, racism, exploitation, and political under-representation.
