(Continued on Schedule O)Our mission is to facilitate information exchange, advocacy, and collaboration among organizations that serve migrants and seasonal farmworkers. The coalition aims to assist migrants and seasonal farmworkers in identifying barriers to equal rights and respect in their place of employment as well as the communities in which they live and work. 0 0 533368 70704 330062 The WNYCFSA serves as a coalition of more than 42 partner agencies, collaborating to provide essential resources and advocacy for farmworkers and migrant populations. These groups, many of whom are undocumented or recent arrivals to the United States, face significant challenges including housing insecurity, language barriers, and lack of access to healthcare and legal support. Our organization works to bridge these gaps, helping individuals and families access essential services while also advocating for equal rights and fair treatment within the agricultural sector. (Continued on Schedule O)In recent years, we have expanded our services to respond to an influx of migrant families, many of whom have been bussed to Rochester from other parts of New York. These families often arrive with little knowledge of local systems, and they face barriers to accessing resources necessary for survival and integration. With this in mind, we provide case management services, including Know Your Rights workshops, housing assistance, school enrollment for children, and legal clinics. In addition to our urban-based services, we continue our outreach in rural areas, supporting farmworkers in navigating workplace rights, health services, and immigration processes.Program Specifics:1. Outreach and Advocacy Program - Our boots-on-the-ground efforts have reached over 5,605 people, advocating for their rights and providing crucial information on immigration, employment, and pesticide safety. We also help individuals secure emergency shelter, food, and basic necessities during crises.2. Support Services Program - We offer comprehensive case management to farmworkers, migrant families, and newcomers. This program connects clients to local agencies, identifies needs through assessments, and develops action plans to support them as they resettle in their communities.3. Legal Services Program - This program assists survivors of labor trafficking with their immigration matters and educates workers about labor trafficking, their rights, and the legal process. We also support clients in reporting to authorities and ensure their rights are protected. Additionally, we provide training to partner organizations and government agencies on labor trafficking and the referral process. 533368 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 18 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 7 4 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 NY X X Kenny Carmona 5852100383 1859 Brooks Ave Apt 2 Rochester NY 14624 X Emma Buckthal Vice-Chair (through 9/1/23) 2.00 X X 69838 0 6179 Kenny Carmona Treasurer 2.00 X X 60750 0 7755 Bill Plews Members at Large 2.00 X 0 0 0 Cindy Lopez-Paz -Chair of Media Relations/Vice-Chair(starting 11/23) 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Mary Jo Dudley Board Liaison (through 10/1/23) 2.00 X 0 0 0 Vianaliz Rivera Members at Large (through 10/1/23) 2.00 X 0 0 0 Joe Cassidy-Schaffer Members at Large (through 9/1/23) 2.00 X 0 0 0 Maryann Rivera-Dannert Board Chair (starting 11/23) 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Maria Delgado Members at Large 2.00 X 16413 0 0 Amber Mesita Secretary (starting 10/19/23) 2.00 X X 2531 0 0 Dr Rashid Muhammad Members at Large (starting 11/15/23) 2.00 X 0 0 0 Irene Sanchez - Board Chair (through 8/23)/Executive Director 35.00 X 57853 0 0 207385 0 13934 0 0 0 0 0 2564 572109 574673 Case Management Servic 624100 329707 329707 329707 18003 18003 1361 2564 1361 0 Other Income 900099 355 355 355 922738 330062 0 18003 70704 70704 67775 35921 31854 339888 301284 38604 29971 25351 4620 38527 31917 6610 10982 6627 4355 22779 4318 18461 8890 7365 1525 21424 21424 428 428 6489 5376 1113 Supplies 18553 18553 7135 4528 2607 643545 533368 110177 0 1815 29500 1150697 899390 161795 3910 958 3398 2952 1155910 1093637 470 28736 1131815 762083 1132285 790819 X 19101 268315 4524 34503 23625 302818 1155910 1093637 279193 0 X 1 X 0 1 0 X 525 11292 25443 164626 574673 776559 1085 329707 330792 525 11292 25443 165711 904380 1107351 138715 419731 558446 0 138715 419731 558446 548905 61 18003 18064 61 18003 18064 1144 2000 1716 4860 1669 13292 25443 165772 924099 1130275 0.48560 0.01600 X Schedule A, Part III, Line 12, Explanation of Other Income: Net Fundraising Income Reimbursement for lost items in storage Other Income Special Events Gross Income RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 3910 958 2952 2952 Refundable Advance 762083 762083 1 Migrant crisis support services 1853 6997 63707 Cost Emergency housing, food, personal hygiene, transportation, interpretation, winter coats, legal filing fees, medical fees, cellphone, school supplies Part I, Line 2: Step 1: Identification of Need A staff member identifies a client's immediate need for direct support, which may include: -Purchase of items such as food, clothing, or household essentials. -Provision of gift cards to cover necessary expenses. -Emergency housing or rent assistance. -Assistance with filing fees.
