Erica Lomeli Corcoran, Interim UFW Foundation CEO, said:
“Farm Worker Voices gives a voice to the millions of outdoor workers who risk their health and lives to provide a decent living for their families. We are hoping that ads such as these will help reach everyday consumers and remind them of the food that farm workers work so hard to bring to their tables. Not only does it show consumers all the work being done to keep the food supply stocked; it also puts a real face to the dangers of climate change not only to outdoor workers but to everyone in general. Climate change is a real threat to farm workers and we must take all the necessary steps to protect them.”
