The Farmworker Association of Florida (FWAF) is a grassroots membership-based organization whose mission is to empower farmworker and rural poor communities to respond to and gain control over the social, political, economic, workplace, health, and environmental justice issues affecting their lives. FWAF’s long-term vision is a social environment where farmworkers’ and immigrants’ contribution, dignity, and worth is acknowledged and valued through economic and social justice. This vision includes farmworkers and immigrants treated as equals, not discriminated against based on race, ethnicity, or socio-economic status. Toward this goal, FWAF’s programs and activities build leadership and activist skills among low-income communities of color who are disproportionately affected by environmental and health problems, racism, exploitation, and political under-representation. FWAF activities include leadership development; pesticide safety and environmental health education and training; community organizing to improve farmworker housing, wages, working conditions, and transportation; immigrants’ and workers’ rights advocacy; sustainable economic development initiatives; disaster preparedness and response; vocational rehabilitation for farmworkers; HIV/AIDS prevention education; peer support and education for pregnant and post-partum farmworker and minority women; partnering in community/academic research studies that focus on farmworker health concerns; and participating in local, statewide, regional, and national coalitions and collaborations to develop common ground on pertinent issues to work for progressive change.
