Partnering to reach California’s farmworkers
This was a first-of-its-kind effort to leverage the strong oral tradition prevalent among California’s farmworkers by delivering preparedness information through audio in a variety of languages commonly spoken by our essential farmworkers, including indigenous languages. Listos California provided a grant to United Way Fresno and Madera Counties (UWFM) to collaborate in partnership with Centro Binacional para el Desarrollo Indígena Oaxaqueño (CBDIO) and Mixteco / Indígena Community Organizing Project (MICOP) to create audio recordings of disaster preparedness information. Videos in indigenous languages were created in partnership with Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Santa Rosa and Movimiento Cultural Indigena, Napa and Sonoma Counties.
Listos California also worked in partnership with CBOs supporting the farmworker community, farm owners, and county agriculture commissioners from eight counties in the Central Valley as well as state agencies to bring this critical information to farmworkers through events, text messaging, radio and educational programs.
Indigenous Language Outreach
In collaboration with community-based organizations, Listos California provides information about disaster preparedness to immigrant and farmworker communities in their native languages, including video and audio formats for speakers of Indigenous oral languages of Mexico and Central America.
Listas
This first-of-its-kind campaign comes at the start of Women’s History Month, in celebration of the vital role of women in society. This comprehensive outreach effort includes more than 80 pieces of unique digital assets, including social media graphics, informational videos and a page dedicated to honoring women in the household. The Listas campaign will provide the knowledge needed for women to lead their families during natural disasters such as wildfires, earthquakes, floods and mudslides.
