	CAMPAIGN FOR FAIR FOOD UPDATE: CIW launches National Petition Campaign to end modern-day slavery, sweatshops in the fields! Much more than an e-campaign, this petition is a living, tangible organizing movement that we encourage our allies to bring to life in their own communities – in schools, churches, union halls, and community gatherings from Miami to Minneapolis, from New York to Los Angeles. We will turn in the petitions in a creative mass procession at Burger King headquarters in Miami later this spring.

	Farmworker Awarness week This week is a SAF-called, nation-wide week of action for students and community members to raise awareness about farmworker issues on their campuses and in their communities.
