Support for Farmworkers

One Community Health was founded in 1986 to provide care for farmworkers. We’ve continued this work for over 35 years, and today have a large team of community health workers, providers, nurses, and other staff to provide services for farmworkers in our clinics and in the field. We are bilingual (Spanish/English) and offer interpretation services for other languages, too. Please see below for a list of services available for farmworkers.
