Current Narrative:
The SMA met with several MSFWs organizations and farmworker advocacy groups statewide to provide training on the complaint system. The SMA provides annual training at the IMFC (Indiana Migrant and Seasonal Farmworker Coalition) meetings. The SMA also trained WorkOne staff and provided a recorded webinar, which can be used for onboarding, a refresher course, and/or mandatory training. The training and other MSFW related items can be found on the WorkOne Portal for staff to access at any time.
