Proteus, Inc. strives to lead the Midwest in supporting agricultural workers on the path to personal and professional self-sufficiency. As a 501(c)3 organization, Proteus, Inc. provides agricultural workers and their families with education assistance and job training.

Proteus is the recipient of the National Farmworker Jobs Program grant through the Employment and Training Administration, U.S. Department of Labor. Funding provided through this program supports the response to chronic seasonal unemployment and underemployment experienced by agricultural workers, by offering educational assistance, short-term certification programs, job training, and/or career placements.  The program helps farmworkers cover costs related to career and training programs such as; tuition, books, tools/equipment, or provides a stipend for class attendance.

Proteus, Inc. also administers a Health & Safety Training Program, funded primarily by the Association of Farmworker Opportunities Program (AFOP). This program provides farmworkers with life-saving information about pesticide exposure, heatstroke/heat stress prevention, and COVID-19 prevention and mitigation strategies.

Headline:
Proteus, Inc. collects long-sleeve shirts for farmworkers
Set a title:
Farmworkers need lightly-colored, light-weight long-sleeve shirts to wear while working the fields. The long sleeves protect their skin from pesticides and ultraviolet rays emitted by the sun. The light colors and light weight of the shirts help keep them cool during the hot days. Please consider collecting gently-used or new long-sleeve shirts from your closet, your friends, or thrift stores to donate to Proteus. Proteus, Inc. will distribute the shirts to farmworkers at Health & Safety Trainings throughout the year.
