Farm labor ranks as one of the top three most dangerous occupations in the United States. In addition to hazards in the fields, farmworkers and their families face unique burdens on their physical and mental health. North Carolina’s leading industry is agriculture, yet farmworkers are among the most underserved residents in the state.

This colorful and easy-to-read fact sheet was designed for congregations and community groups.  Contact us if you would like free hard copies.
