Voter Engagement
In 2024, the Civic Empowerment Coalition (CEC) knocked on nearly 110,000 doors in Arizona, Georgia, and Michigan to mobilize farm workers, low-propensity, and BIPOC voters.
Our civic engagement program stresses the importance of voting to bring about systemic change. By canvassing door-to-door in geographic areas that are often ignored, the CEC builds power in communities that have long been marginalized. We ensure that community members who are eligible to vote are registered, informed and can access their ballot.

Advocacy
Farm workers were excluded from the Fair Labor Standards Act and other federal labor laws in the 1930s. Unfortunately, the exclusionary nature of federal protections often carries over to many state labor laws. As such, the Civic Empowerment Coalition advocates for policies that improve the rights of farm workers nationally and at the local level. By engaging farm workers and their families in advocacy, decision-makers can hear directly from the individuals who put food on our tables.
