Overview

Mission

The mission of Alianza Nacional de Campesinas is to unify the struggle to promote farm worker womens leadership in a national movement to create broader visibility and advocate for changes that ensure their human rights.

What it reported doing in 2024

Violence Against Women Alianza Nacional de Campesinas, received funding for various Violence Against Women related projects. One of our projects based in California focused on ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences) and how it related to violence and toxic stress in adulthood with Futures Without Violence and Lideres Campesinas as they work with health clinics (who serve farmworker communities). Alianza implemented its Esperanza United project that provided empowerment-based capacity-building training and support to farmworker women in Miami-Dade County, Florida, and Marion County, Oregon, to prevent and address workplace sexual harassment and assault. The program provided education on identifying sexual harassment and assault, understanding its long-term impact, knowing ones rights, and accessing local health and social service resources, including those related to COVID-19. The project achieved its goals through three key objectives: 1. Training and Outreach: Trained project staff and farmworker women to strengthen outreach and increase awareness of sexual harassment, assault, and available community resources. 2. Leadership Development: Established a cadre of Campesinas Solidarias (Peer Campesina Advocates) through a culturally specific, gender-based violence train-the-trainer model to provide peer support, referrals, and accompaniment for victims/survivors. 3. Service Enhancement: Improved response capacity among local partnersvictim service providers, health and social service agencies, and law enforcementby promoting equitable trauma-informed, and culturally responsive service delivery. Alianza also collaborated with Campesinos Sin Fronteras (CSF) under the OVW-Sexual Assault Services (SAS) grant in Yuma, Arizona, and Imperial County, California, to expand culturally specific services addressing workplace sexual harassment and assault. This three-year initiative focuses on: 1. Providing trauma-informed, linguistically responsive outreach and referrals; 2. Delivering direct intervention and assistance to sexual assault victims and their families; and 3. Strengthening community-based, culturally specific services through training and technical assistance. Alianza and Lderes Campesinas provided trauma-informed sexual harassment and assault training to CSF staff, while Ancestral Liberation Firm (ALF) conducted LGBTQ+ inclusion training addressing implicit and explicit bias. CSF now provides direct services such as victim accompaniment through legal and medical processes, crisis intervention, assistance with VAWA visa applications, and financial support for victims and their families.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 95% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and most voting board members are independent. The filing does not identify recipients for some grant dollars and expenses are high relative to revenue.
