Hello!

I am Dr. Rhonda Cameron, a Psychologist with Premier

Community Healthcare Group, Inc. in Dade

City, Florida.

Our Marketing person was approached by some teachers at Pasco County Schools

for age-appropriate teaching tools on the topic of Migrant farm workers, the

history of Migrant farmwork in the US and issues facing farm worker families. I

would appreciate any references that you may be aware of.
