Empowering Migrant Communities for a Better Future
MAFO has always emphasized that WORKING TOGETHER, collaboratively, we have a tremendous potential for building social capital
MAFO began in 1972 to represent the issues facing migrants and the Midwestern farmworker organizations that serve them at the national level. At that time, the federal government focused primarily on migrants’ home states, often overlooking the Midwest and other “receiver” states. In response, farmworker organizations across the region came together to form a unified voice.
Currently, MAFO is the only national organization with a broad-based membership and constituency uniquely positioned to address the challenges facing not only disadvantaged farmworkers, but also the wider rural Latino population.
