Centro Campesino helps current and former farmworker families obtain housing through a revolving loan fund coordinated through the Housing Committee.

This is how it works:

• Housing Committee is composed of families who have been helped by the Housing Fund;
• Families work together to raise funds through various activities such as cooking and selling food at local festivals;
• A family in need of housing volunteers to work with the Housing Committee to raise funds;
• A no-interest loan of no more than $10,000 will be available to be used toward the family's housing needs, e.g. down payment or home renovation;
• Family then pays back Centro Campesino at the rate of $150/month;
• Family continues to work with the Housing Committee until loan is paid off; and
• The Housing Fund is replenished and is available for another family in need.
