Mission

The mission of CRLAF is to achieve social justice and equity in partnership with farmworkers and the underserved in rural communities through community, legislative and legal advocacy. Our vision is for all farmworkers and their families to be treated with dignity and respect. CRLAF helps increase the capacity of rural immigrants to advocate for themselves, to develop leadership, and to become more engaged in their communities as stakeholders driving the agenda for improved economic and social conditions. We work in the areas of immigration and citizenship, labor, housing, education, community health, worker safety, and environmental justice.
