Description:

This planning guide is intended to provide a set of actionable step that can be taken by public health officials pre-event, during the event, and post-event taking into account how emergency type will impact response. The planning steps are not generic: they take into account the unique living and working conditions as well as cultural differences of migrant and seasonal farm workers. This guide is not intended to provide a complete planning process, but rather to serve as a foundation for comprehensive planning on the farm, family, or individual level for emergency preparedness.
