Abstract

COVID-19 elucidated the urgency for health justice advocacy for Latinx farmworkers in Florida. While deemed essential, farmworkers' value was not reflected in policy responses to ensure their protection. The deficiency of culturally and linguistically relevant guidance from government agencies and state restrictions requiring identification for COVID-19 services were impediments to farmworkers accessing care. Equitable access was increased through a statewide promotor de salud network delivering health information and mobilizing vaccine partners to serve farmworkers at high risk of COVID-19 infection.
