On Sept. 19, 2019, NCFHP celebrated over 25 years of partnerships at an event in Chapel Hill, highlighting outreach and enabling services as essential components of care for farmworkers. The over 100 attendees included outreach workers, providers, clinic administrators, current and past board and staff members and representatives from partner agencies such as non-profits, state agencies and universities from across the state.

At the event, NCFHP debuted a new documentary short film that highlights the strong collaboration between the NC Farmworkers Project (a NCFHP-funded site) and the Benson Area Medical Center as an example of the work that NCFHP supports throughout the state.
