Site Visit: Building Economic Power for Rural Migrant Communities in Arkansas

Northwest Arkansas
GCIR is organizing a site visit to Northwest Arkansas to complement the GSP 2025 Convening for funders and philanthropic-supporting organizations. Arkansas is one of the top five poultry processing states in the nation and has one of the highest concentrations of farmworkers. Immigrants have helped catalyze communities in the northwestern part of the state, a region which would otherwise have experienced significant population decline.
