A program in the Columbia River Gorge helps migrant farmworkers’ families during harvest season. The Resources Available for Migrant Access to Services, or RAMAS group, is led by the Oregon Child Development Coalition in Hood River and Wasco Counties. It provides support during a four-week period of peak harvest time, including food boxes to families. Leah Hall with Columbia Gorge Food Bank in The Dalles says migrant workers follow the harvest and often bring their families with them. Hall says they also help migrant farmworkers and families receives education, nutrition, health, social services, mental health and disabilities, and family engagement education services. She adds the group works with orchardists and farm owners in the region to determine when workers are expected to arrive.
