For the past seven years, Self-Help Enterprises has partnered with The Farmworker Institute of Education and Leadership Development (FIELD) to strengthen communities through education. FIELD offers English as a Second Language classes as well as the FIELD Charter School, which has been giving individuals over 18 the opportunity to earn their high school diploma. FIELD offers these programs to community residents and individuals who reside at Self-Help Enterprises' Villa Hermosa rental home community in Wasco and the Solinas Village rental home community in McFarland. Students attend morning and evening sessions, which are held at the community rooms of the two rental home community locations. Through the partnership, students earn a high school diploma and learn skills that will give them the confidence to realize their dreams.
