The story of a group of community members that decided to band together and create a Field Workers Appreciation Caravan whose mission is to bring awareness to the essential workers that are fieldworkers. The Watsonville Campesino Appreciation Caravan has gone on to provide resources to campesinos such as gift cards, masks, cleaning supplies, books, information and much more.

Las Tías follows the story of Ernie and Sally who share their experience going through the pandemic as a dialysis patient and caretaker. They share how the virus nearly entered their home, and give us insight into what isolation looks like for our elders. The short film reminds us to continue wearing proper masking, to follow social distancing practices, and to isolate if we are not feeling well. We do this so we can protect our loved ones- so we can hug our abuelas, tías, primas and all our familia once again.

The Revolunas are a collective of empowered mujeres organizing to bring resources, support, and advocacy to the Watsonville community. During the pandemic the Revolunas have organized with other collectives and individuals in Santa Cruz and Monterey County, have supported organizing and advocacy efforts, and are working to create a space for young mujeres in the area.

The Digital NEST is a Non-Profit career develop center in Watsonville. When the pandemic hit the organization quickly pivoted to get technology and rescues out to as many members as possible, and worked along side other non-profits to ensure that the community was well resourced, informed, and responsive to the needs of individuals, families, and our most vulnerable. It's because of non-profits like the NEST and many others in the community that we were able to get accurate information and messaging out about the pandemic. Thank you to all the non-profits for supporting our community during the pandemic.

Ebonie brings us into her world as she enters college during the pandemic. As an athlete, content creator, and part-time worker Ebonie's story shows how young adults took on many roles and responsibilities during the pandemic to support their family, while doing what they love.
