Dear Colleagues,

At the 17th East Coast Migrant Stream Forum, held in St. sburg, Florida, in October, the three East Coast Migrant Health Coordinators (representing the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, and Southeast regions) facilitated a session in which participants were invited to provide information about the farmworkers they serve, including crops and commodities, population demographics, countries of origin/ethnicity, home base and upstream stops, and future trends. In addition, participants were asked to list any programmatic expertise they might be in need of, or that they might have and would be willing to share.

The purpose of the exercise was to update what we know about farmworkers in the East Coast Stream, and about the Migrant Health programs that serve them. It was also meant to provide an opportunity for people to get to know the programmatic strengths and needs of colleagues in their region, and in the Stream.

The information provided by those who attended the session has been collated in the attached documents. It is obviously not comprehensive, since relatively few programs are represented. But we hope it serves as the beginning of a process which will enable us to see, as they exist today, those we serve in the East Coast Stream, and the tremendous resources we can collectively bring to bear on their behalf.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to call us.

Thank you, . This is very valuable information and I will pass it along to Florida people who might be able to use it (or who can share it with others).
