Help celebrate farmworker awareness week

 

According to the Association of Farmworker Opportunity  website, farmworkers are exposed to dangerous pesticides for long periods of time during the work week. Each year, an estimated 1 billion pounds of pesticides are applied to U.S. farms, forests, lawns and golf courses.  Pesticide applicators, farmers and farmworkers, and communities near farms are often most at risk of pesticide exposure and related illnesses.  

 

Help protect  farmworkers from harmful pesticides by donating new or gently used long-sleeve shirts . Simply drop off your donation of long-sleeve shirts at the Alabama Career Center located at 515 Springhill Plaza Court. To learn more, please contact Elizabeth Medina Cathey at 251-304-0391 or  email at emedinamerino@telamon.org

 

Career Center employees and partner agencies participate in Farmworker Awareness Week.
