Preventing Agricultural Chemical Exposure among North Carolina Farmworkers (PACE) is a project designed to describe farmworker pesticide exposure and to develop an educational intervention to reduce farmworker pesticide exposure. The PACE project used a community participation framework to ensure that the community played a significant role in identifying its own health problems and working toward their resolution. This manual offers a concrete plan for addressing the problem of farmworker pesticide exposure and is intended for use by anyone who wants to develop a community-based approach to offering pesticide safety instruction for migrant and seasonal farmworkers. Chapter 1 explains the importance of working with the community in developing educational programs and the general model for the pesticide safety program developed by the PACE Project. Chapter 2 focuses on the procedures for planning a successful safety program using a collaborative, participatory approach. Chapter 3 describes the specifics of the safety program in detail, including suggested instructional techniques and program outlines. The program consists of three parts, a direct safety program for farmworkers, an expanded safety program for farmworker representatives as promoters, and a follow-up program for promoters. All programs meet Environmental Protection Agency requirements for training field workers. The appendix contains English and Spanish versions of 10 fact sheets on pesticide exposure, a list of educational materials, promoter follow-up sheets, and forms for recording local resource information. A comic that presents pesticide safety issues in Spanish is also included. (Contains 30 references.) (TD)
