Portrait of a Laborer: Indigenous Farmworkers in Santa Barbra County

In January, 2005, CCEHP embarked on a project to detail the lives of indigenous farmworkers in Santa Barbara County. Funded by The California Endowment, the goal of this report is to provide a better understanding of the day to day lives of immigrant farmworkers living in Santa Barbara County, providing a basis from which to better serve this community.

CCEHP's report, Portrait of a Laborer: Indigenous Farmworkers in Santa Barbra County, gathered information on family characteristics, employment histories, and basic health data through a 59 question survey administered by volunteers from January-April 2005 in Santa Maria. The report issues a series of recommendations targeting a broad sector of the community, which if enacted, could lead to better working and living conditions for thousands of farmworkers.
