Members provide services throughout California but especially in rural areas where farm workers live and work. We focus on increasing farm worker self-sufficiency through training and employment and on making healthcare, housing, and other forms of aid available while respecting agency and independence in the communities we serve.
Five organizations coordinate their services through La Cooperativa, serving 31 counties and an estimated 30,000 farm workers per year. These organizations are:
California Human Development Corporation
Center for Employment Training
Central Valley Opportunity Center
Employers’ Training Resource
Proteus, Inc.
