THIS MEETING IS ACCESSIBLE TO PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES 2 For decades, the hard work of campesinas
(farmworker women) has built and fed
California. Líderes Campesinas is a growing
movement where we come together to
advocate for and win what our communities
need.
We build on the long legacy of women using
organizing, outreach, and grassroots
mobilization to improve the lives of farmworker
communities. Our origins stretch back to 1988
in the Coachella Valley: due to immigration
status, lack of formal education, and abusive
work conditions, women were susceptible to
violence in the fields and in their homes. Using
theater and storytelling as educational tools,
these women came together to raise awareness
about their rights and connected (more) women
to resources to disrupt the violence.
Now, we are a statewide network of powerful
advocates based in sixteen farm working
communities where we impact thousands of
women and their families. We organize to
create healthier working conditions, safer
environments, and engaged women leaders.
Líderes Campesinas focuses on the inherent
power and leadership of farmworker women
because when we invest in them, we take care
of entire families and communities.
The mission of Líderes
Campesinas is to strengthen the
leadership of farmworker women
and youth so that they can be
agents of economic, social and
political change and ensure their
human rights.

We are currently raising funds for our next
convening which will take place in April 2024
in Sacramento, our first in 20 years. It will be
a 3-Day healing convening, focused on
radical Love and Power.
Farm-working women across California will
gather in one place to participate in
workshops and discussions regarding the
state of farmworkers, agriculture, and
various other social issues concerning the
farm-working community.
We will also march to the state capitol and
meet with our state representatives
expressing the needs, concerns, and hopes
of farmworkers. Our voices will be heard!
We are working to raise $300,000 for this
event!
We have 400 members and staff across the
state. The cost of bringing 1 woman or girl to
our convening is about $750 dollars, which
includes the cost of lodging, transportation,
meals, and other event related expenses.
You all can help make this dream a
reality!
Contact us if you have a different idea in
mind. We're happy to explore a partnership
that works for all of us.
