In 2023, led by Supervisor Sylvia Arenas, the County of Santa Clara adopted a comprehensive farmworker housing workplan that highlights the need for the County to prioritize the needs of our farmworkers. The panel will focus on the critical need for farmworker housing, while also serving as an informative workshop for farmworkers, providing them with valuable information about their rights and the resources available to them. This workshop will reaffirm our commitment to providing affordable housing to our farmworkers and supporting our immigrant community during these unprecedented times.
