Vecinos Featured in the News

August 13, 2018 by Mary Johnson Rockers

NCFHP contract site Vecinos in Western North Carolina is highlighted in a recent issue of The Mountain Express including stories from staff and the farmworkers they work with.

“Despite their importance to the region’s economy, these workers often labor in conditions that make obtaining health services difficult or impossible. Some dedicated advocacy organizations and health care providers fill the gap with mobile services that take care directly to farmworkers who would otherwise go without.”

Brian Elmore. (2018, July 16). Mobile clinics take health care to migrant workers. The Mountain Express. Retrieved from https://mountainx.com
