Despite immigrants making up 25% of California’s population (with a significantly higher rate in Central California) and nearly 80% of its agricultural workforce, supporting the state’s position as the fifth largest provider of the world’s food, few organizations in the region receive state funding to provide legal services for this vulnerable and important population.
Facing an under-resourced legal infrastructure, significant geographic and linguistic barriers, and a history of limited availability and access to public and private funding, the immigrant communities in the Central Valley and Central Coast are especially vulnerable. This region is deeply consequential to the economy at national, state and individual levels and is a crucial mid-term election battlefield.
