Farmworker Advocacy Network

We’re a statewide network of organizations that work to improve living and working conditions of farmworkers and poultry workers in North Carolina. Since 2003, our full members have brought workers’ voices to the legislative process. In the past, we have identified and led campaigns to improve housing conditions, pesticide safety and wages. FAN’s members, as they are able, work together to:

• Push for better workplace laws through education to the public, advocacy and research;
• Support efforts of farmworkers and poultry workers to be leaders in the worker justice movement;
• Monitor government agencies whose activities impact workers’ rights, health and wellbeing.
