1. Sonoma Valley Farmworker Housing Needs Assessment & Feasibility Study

The study can be done as soon as it is funded. Ideally the study is conducted at the Sonoma County scale, but if not, then for Sonoma Valley or District 1.

2. Farmworker Housing & Resource Center 

Planning for the center(s) requires effort on three fronts: political, funding, and real estate. All three can begin now, with construction within 3 to 6 years. 

3. Partner with the Sonoma Valley Community Development Corporation to create and fund farmworker housing projects

One of the three projects in the SVCDC’s pilot program, which will operate during 2026, could intentionally be one designed to be occupied by farmworkers (likely in addition to other low-income people).
