Testimonial

My participation in SAF has been truly transformative. Connecting with passionate individuals and advocating for farmworkers has inspired me to step out of my comfort zone and reaffirmed my commitment to public service, especially for immigrant communities. It's been a genuine journey of growth and empowerment, driven by the support and love of fellow advocates.
