Civic and Social OrganizationsUnited States11-50 Employees

The Association of Farmworker Opportunity Programs (AFOP) and its 52 member organizations serve migrant and seasonal farmworkers in 49 states and Puerto Rico. We provide job training, pesticide safety education, emergency  assistance, and an advocacy voice for the people who prepare and harvest our nation’s food. All member organizations operate under the National Farmworker Jobs Program (NFJP), which is a competitive grant program of the U.S. Department of Labor.

The NFJP is aimed at educating and training farmworkers into jobs that allow them to earn an income to sustain themselves and their families. Over the past eight years, more than 50,649 eligible farmworkers have received quality training and were placed in and retained good jobs with benefits, which they rarely receive from farm work. In addition to the NFJP, AFOP’s members operate a variety of programs including Head Start, migrant education, and housing counseling. AFOP's national staff also provides services and advocates for the farmworker population through its Health & Safety Programs and the Children in the Fields Campaign, headquartered in Washington, D.C.
