Organizations Filed Purposes:
THE NORTH CAROLINA FARMWORKERS' PROJECT (NCFP) EXISTS TO PROMOTE THE ORGANIZATION OF FARMWORKERS SO THAT THEY CAN FIND SOLUTIONS TO THEIR PROBLEMS COLLECTIVELY, TO ENCOURAGE POLITICAL PARTICIPATION AND TO GIVE FARMWORKERS THE TOOLS TO WORK TO IMPROVE THEIR LIVING CONDITIONS.
THE FARMWORKER HEALTH CLINIC PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO ENSURE THAT FARMWORKERS AND THEIR FAMILIES HAVE KNOWLEDGE OF AND ACCESS TO HEALTH SERVICES FOR ACUTE CARE, CHRONIC ILLNESS, AND PREVENTIVE CARE. IN PARTNERSHIP WITH BENSON AREA MEDICAL CENTER (BAMC), CLINICS ARE OFFERED SPECIFICALLY FOR FARMWORKERS ONE NIGHT A WEEK AND A MOBILE MEDICAL UNIT PROVIDES MEDICAL SERVICES AND OVER-THE-COUNTER MEDICINES TO WORKERS AT VARIOUS LOCATIONS TWO NIGHTS A WEEK. NCFP REACHES OUT TO FARMWORKERS TO INFORM THEM OF THE SERVICES AVAILABLE, PERFORM BASIC HEALTH ASSESSMENTS AND EDUCATE FARMWORKERS ABOUT VARIOUS HEALTH TOPICS SUCH AS GREEN TOBACCO SICKNESS, HEAT ILLNESS, PESTICIDE SAFETY AND SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTIONS THROUGH INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP PRESENTATIONS. NCFP SCHEDULES APPOINTMENTS AS NEEDED AND PROVIDES TRANSPORTATION TO THE CLINICS, INTERPRETATION SERVICES, AND FOLLOW-UP VISITS TO ENSURE THAT PRESCRIBED MEDICATION AND REFERRALS TO SPECIALISTS HAVE BEEN OBTAINED AS NEEDED. IN 2019, WE REACHED OVER 3,000 FARMWORKERS IN SIX COUNTIES AND FACILITATED MORE THAN 700 MEDICAL AND SPECIALIST APPOINTMENTS. WE ALSO PROVIDED SPECIALIZED ASSISTANCE TO DIABETIC FARMWORKERS, MEETING WITH THEM WEEKLY FOR ONE-ON-ONE HEALTH EDUCATION AND SUPPORT.
ACA OUTREACH & ENROLLMENT PROGRAM - IN 2019, NCFP OFFERED EDUCATION ABOUT AFFORDABLE CARE ACT INSURANCE PLANS AND THE US INSURANCE SYSTEM IN GENERAL TO MORE THAN 750 H2A FARMWORKERS WHO WERE POTENTIALLY ELIGIBLE TO ENROLL IN INSURANCE. WE FACILITATED THE ENROLLMENT OF MORE THAN 200 OF THESE WORKERS. WE ALSO PROVIDED FOLLOW-UP WITH ENROLLED FARMWORKERS TO MAKE SURE THEY UNDERSTOOD HOW TO MAINTAIN THEIR INSURANCE PLANS AND CONDUCTED AN INSURANCE UTILIZATION TRAINING WITH ALL ENROLLED WORKERS. OUTREACH STAFF ALSO PROVIDED EDUCATION ON OUR MODEL AT SEVERAL WEBINARS WITH NATIONAL AUDIENCES.
FARMWORKER ADVOCACY NETWORK IS A STATEWIDE COALITION THAT USES POLICY ADVOCACY CAMPAIGNS AS AN EFFECTIVE WAY TO PROMOTE LONG-TERM AGRICULTURAL REFORMS FOR FIELD AND POULTRY PROCESSING WORKERS IN NORTH CAROLINA. THROUGH FAN, A DIVERSE GROUP OF NONPROFIT, GOVERNMENT, LEGAL, EDUCATION, AND WORKER ORGANIZATIONS IDENTIFY KEY TOPICS OF CONCERN TO THE PREDOMINANTLY IMMIGRANT FARMWORKER POPULATION IN NC, INTRODUCE POLICIES AROUND THESE KEY TOPICS, INFLUENCE AGENCIES TO INCREASE ENFORCEMENT OF LAWS PROTECTING THESE WORKERS, AND INFORM AND INVOLVE WORKER LEADERS AND STUDENT ACTIVISTS IN POLICY ADVOCACY CAMPAIGNS. MEMBER ORGANIZATIONS ALSO WORK ON RAISING PUBLIC AWARENESS OF FARMWORKER ISSUES. THE NETWORK OF ORGANIZATIONS ALSO COLLABORATES ON A STATEWIDE LABOR CAMP DATABASE CALLED FLAN, WHICH ALLOWS ADVOCATES AND SERVICE PROVIDERS TO BETTER COORDINATE SERVICES FOR FARMWORKERS ACROSS THE STATE. SINCE JULY 2016, THE NC FARMWORKERS' PROJECT HAS BEEN THE LEAD COORDINATING ORGANIZATION FOR FAN.
