The association has operated in Central New York since 1974. The association offers emergency food, clothing, non-emergency dental care, preventative medical care, alcohol information, legal advice, child-care, and job referral assistance among other services. Many farm workers in the central New York area come from Mexico, Guatemala, Puerto Rico, and numerous other places in Latin America and the Caribbean.
