new study estimating migrant and seasonal farmworkers

[Guest guest]

Just a notice to let everyone know that the Oregon Migrant and Seasonal Farmworkers Enumeration Profiles Study is now available through the CASA of Oregon website (www.casaoforegon.org).

This report offers estimates of migrant and seasonal farmworkers and their non-farmworking family members for every county in the state. It also provides statewide estimates of children by age groups.

The definition used is that of the Migrant Health Program, and this report is similiar in approach to the previous ten Enumeration Profiles Study state studies completed in 2000. These include: Arkansas, California, Florida, Louisiana, land, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Texas and Washington. They can be obtained through the Migrant Health website at: http://www.bphc.hrsa.gov/migrant/enumeration/enumerationstudy.htm

I hope you find the information useful.
