Lew
Papenfuse, Executive Director, welcomes you to
www.FLSNY.org. Farmworker Legal Services
of New York, Inc. has been serving migrant and seasonal farm workers for the
past 30 years through direct representation in civil matters regarding
employment and wage issues. FLSNY also serves the migrant community who may
be victims of domestic violence and human trafficking. Pesticide education
to prevent exposure and poisoning remains a significant part of FLSNY's
services.
FLSNY is particularly proud of its reputation as the only program in New
York that conducts extensive outreach to the migrant community. As a result
of our close ties to this community, we have been the recipient of grants to
provide services to special populations within this group. FLSNY now
services victims of human trafficking, domestic violence and those exposed
to pesticides.
