National Center For Farmworker Health, Inc.

National Center For Farmworker Health, Inc. (NCFH) is a non-profit, tax-exempt organization based in Buda, Texas, dedicated to improving the health and safety of farmworker populations across the United States. Registered in SAM.gov since 2004, the organization specializes in providing health-related services, training, and support to farmworkers, with a particular focus on vulnerable populations such as migrant workers, indigenous language speakers, and guest workers in rural areas. NCFH has established itself as a critical intermediary organization that connects farmworkers with essential health resources, protective equipment, and educational services.

Through federal grant awards, NCFH has consistently secured significant funding from agencies like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and the Agricultural Marketing Service to support farmworker health initiatives. Notable grant awards include a $600,000 CDC Cooperative Agreement to improve farmworker health and safety through training and outreach, a $36 million USDA Block Grant for pandemic relief payments and services to over 53,000 farmworkers, and a CDC grant focused on emerging infectious disease threats. The organization frequently collaborates with academic and community partners, such as the University of California, Davis, to develop specialized resources like pesticide safety training videos in indigenous languages. NCFH's sub-grant activities have involved creating culturally sensitive educational materials, conducting focus groups, developing training programs, and providing critical COVID-19 relief services, including personal protective equipment distribution, healthcare referrals, and vaccination support across 20 states.
