Vecinos is a 501(c)3 nonprofit health care organization serving and advocating for farmworkers and uninsured, low-income adults in western North Carolina. We have a specific focus on the Latinx and farmworker community.
Agricultural work is one of the most dangerous jobs in the country and workers face many barriers when it comes to accessing care. Vecinos aims to break down health care barriers by bringing services directly to the community.
At Vecinos we are working toward a healthy, thriving, and empowered Latinx community.
Since our inception, Vecinos, Inc. has been providing medical outreach and advocating for the social and economic well-being of farmworkers and their families in our communities. In 2022, our board and staff rededicated Vecinos to serving any uninsured, low-income adult with a specific focus on those in need of Spanish-language services. Our dedication to farmworkers and migrant workers remains at the core of our organization and we are excited to expand our service model to better meet the needs of the community
Vecinos believes in reaching out, with open hands and hearts, and being good neighbors. At Vecinos, we don’t just offer health care, we aim to show appreciation for the important work that our community members and farmworkers do, offer them the support and care that all people deserve, and welcome them to our area as valuable members of our community.
