Federal programs and national organizations that serve migrant farmworkers and their families share a, common goal: to improve the effectiveness of services to meet the needs of farmworkers and their families. Migrant families often experience difficulty in receiving continuous high quality services because of their high rate of mobility, cultural and language barriers, social isolation, health-related problems, disruption of their children's education, and the lack of resources in the areas in which they live and work. Farmworker families are more likely to have their basic needs met and to contribute to our nation's wealth and well-being when they receive coordinated services from the various agencies and organizations that are entrusted with protecting and serving them.This directory is part of the Office of Migrant Education's continuing effort to improve coordination among health, education, early childhood, housing, employment, environmental, community service, and legal programs that serve farmworkers and their families. This publication was developed collaboratively by the programs represented within and is intended to provide information on the services available to migrant farmworkers and their families. It includes both federal and non-federal programs, as well as field offices for those programs.The directory is written to provide basic information on programs and services.It is NOT intended to provide legal guidance concerning statutes and regulations related to services for migrants. The U.S. Department of Education plans to update and distribute this publication periodically. If you have any suggestions, please write us at the address provided below.If you would like additional copies of the directory, please contact the U.S. Department of Education's publications office at 1-800-USA-LEARN (1-800-872-5327). We hope this directory will help improve federal, state and local coordination efforts and will benefit migrant families throughout the nation.

  • Bolivia Olímpica Capítulos VI Al VIII
    Símbolos de los VIII Juegos y de la ODEBO. El año 1935 en la Junta encargada de preparar los festejos del Cuarto Centenario de la Ciudad de Bogotá, capital de Colombia, tuvo origen la idea de realzar tal acontecimiento histórico con una competencia deportiva extraordinaria similar a las que tenían desarrollo dentro del movimiento olímpico mundial, con la participación de los países que fueron liberados del dominio español por el insigne prócer sudamericano Simón Bolívar. Impulsor y hombre llave del proyecto fue Alberto Nariño Cheyne, Director Nacional de Educación Física de Colombia. Este dirigente se dedicó a organizar las Asociaciones Nacionales de cada uno de los deportes existentes en su patria y una vez alcanzado tan importante objetivo, fundó el Comité Olímpico Colombiano. Nariño Cheyne concibió así el plan de realizar unas justas deportivas internacionales distintas y aprovechando su concurrencia personal a la olimpiada efectuada en Berlín en 1936, este soñador americano tomó contacto, en su condición de presidente del Comité Olímpico de su país con los integrantes del Consejo Ejecutivo de la máxima entidad Olímpica Internacional, ocasión en la que presentó al conde de Baillet Latour un informe patentizando sus laudables intenciones. Los resultados fueron positivos y de carácter inmediato, ya que, el 16 de agosto de ese año, el presidente del COI le hizo entrega de un documento en el que, además de aprobar sus propósitos, aseguraba el patrocinio de la organización olímpica mundial a los Juegos Bolivarianos, reservando los mismos a la participación exclusiva de Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Panamá, Perú y Venezuela, las naciones de nuestro continente, vinculadas particularmente a la lucha libertadora de 1 Bolívar, y la verificación de la primera versión en la ciudad de Bogotá el año 1938, durante los festejos conmemorativos del IV Centenario de su fundación.
