The pandemic showed us that there are certain workers we just cannot survive without as a society. Knowing that, why are we not focused more on protecting the workers that keep us fed, cloth and happy? Daniel Zinnel, EdD helps us open our eyes to what we take for granted on a daily basis. The type of work that Daniel and Proteus, Inc. does is inspiring and eye opening. listen to our full episode on the link on the comment. follow AmplifiedDsm for more content like this. hyper local, hyper positive platform.

Today, we celebrate Agricultural Worker Health Day as part of Health Center Week. This day is dedicated to honoring the health and well-being of the hardworking individuals who keep our agriculture thriving. Agricultural workers play a crucial role in bringing fresh produce to our tables. It's important to ensure they have access to the healthcare they need to stay healthy and strong. Health centers provide vital services, from medical check-ups to health education, helping agricultural workers and their families live healthier lives. Thank you to all the healthcare providers who support our agricultural workers. Your work makes a significant difference in their lives and our communities!
