Project Coordinator

About House Farm Workers!

The mission of House Farm Workers! is to support affordable, safe, stable housing for farm workers in Ventura County through education and advocacy. Our work is not always visible, but it is critical. We do not build farm worker housing; we make it possible for others to do so by building a conducive political and regulatory environment.
