Sonoma Valley Community Development Corporation: The new mission-driven entity can take on farmworker housing as one of its project types/business models. These projects will be unique given the larger access to land that agricultural employers have, the changes in the wine industry, possibly the transition from vineyard grapes to other crops/uses, and the benefits and challenges of government funding sources specifically for farmworker housing. 

Sonoma County Community Development Commission: This is Sonoma County’s housing authority and would be the lead agency. Government or nonprofit management is preferable to the situation at the farmworker housing project Ortiz Plaza, which is managed by a private, for-profit entity. Even if management is outsourced, the CDC will be involved to secure funding and coordinate the needed coalition.

Common Space Community Land Trust: a smaller CLT with projects in Sebastopol and Healdsburg which “permanently removes land from the speculative real estate market and protects affordable housing – forever.” Common Space, Zeke Guzman, and Maria Membrila have started working toward a farmworker resource center. 

Private Land Owners/Employers: As-yet-unidentified agricultural landowner(s) - Typically farmworker housing is built on agricultural land, though that is not the only possible configuration.
