Adelante Mujeres becomes a community partner for the Oregon Worker Relief Fund
Starting August 1st, we will no longer be taking any calls to make an appointment. If people are seeking financial assistance for either the OWRF or the Oregon Worker Quarantine Fund for Farm Workers please have them call 1-888-274-7292 Monday - Friday from 9am - 6pm.
Under this current pandemic, many mixed-status and undocumented immigrant farm workers, food-processing workers, housekeepers, construction workers, landscapers, caregivers and day laborers, etc. have been disproportionally impacted by COVID-19, having very few resources to meet their basic needs during this crisis.
The Oregon Worker Relief Fund seeks to provide direct cash assistance to immigrant Oregonians who are impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and are excluded from federal and state safety-nets.
Adelante Mujeres is honored to be part of the many culturally-specific organizations who will be supporting community members through this process.
