The Center for Farmworker Families, founded and directed by Dr. Ann Lopez, promotes awareness about the difficult life circumstances of farmworkers in both California and Mexico while proactively inspiring improvement of family life on both sides of the border. The organization engages in promoting the educational advancement of farmworkers and their children, promoting sustainable development projects, examining the laws that affect farmworker livelihoods and advocating for policy changes that enhance farmworker family wellbeing, and supporting education and research on farmworker issues in California and Mexico.
