Migrant Programs in the Northwestern States -- Idaho, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Oregon, Washington, Wyoming.
National Migrant Information Clearinghouse, Austin, TX. Juarez-Lincoln Center.
Part of the "Comprehensive National Survey of Migrant Programs" series, this directory lists services and resources available to migrant and seasonal farmworkers during their stay in the Northwestern states of Idaho, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Oregon, Washington, and Wyoming. Prepared for use by agencies working with these farmworkers, the directory gives information and data obtained from Federal, State, and local agencies in the various states. Special emphasis was placed on data current as of summer 1974. Information is given for each state: (1) programs; (2) crops and work periods; (3) migrant population and wages by county; (4) labor camps; and (5) supplementary data such as information sources and exhibits which depict county distribution and State relation to the national migratory patterns. Programs listed provide educational, health, legal, and job placement services to migrant workers. Some of the listings of organizations, programs, or agencies may contain some obsolete information due to their: instability; being subject to change as new needs, priorities, and objectives appear; or as operating funds expire.
