COALITION OF FLORIDA FARMWORKER
ORGANIZATIONS, INC.
COFFO is a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the living and working conditions of migrant and seasonal farmworkers and the rural poor in Florida. Governed by a nine-member Board of Directors-
one-third representing the Public Sector, one-third the Private Sector, and one-third the Low-Income Sector. COFFO focuses its core services through its offices in Florida City and Immokalee.
While COFFO primarily serves these two communities, it remains prepared to provide statewide support in the event of an agricultural disaster declared by the Governor. COFFO also collaborates with other farmworker organizations to ensure services reach those in need and to minimize duplication of efforts.
