Health
Health care access for Latino migrant farm workers in Vermont is a challenging but increasingly hopeful arena. Language barriers, limited transportation, cultural differences in health care access practices, and fear of exposing oneself to the community are all barriers to health care access. The Vermont Farm Worker Health Needs Assessment discusses the health care situation for this population in detail.
