Lynnette Marrero

Lynnette's Story

My name is Lynnette. I am a native Nuyorican (New York Puerto Rican). My family sacrificed and migrated as a part of the Puerto Rican diaspora to live and work in the U.S. As the first generation born here, I have opportunities to pursue my dreams. Migrant women and the immigrant community are the backbone of the food supply chain, contributing essential labor, cultural knowledge, and resilience at every stage—from farms to tables. It is important to me to be involved in advocacy, especially supporting and protecting women in all spaces.



En Español


Me llamo Lynnette. Soy nuyorican (puertorriqueña de Nueva York). Mi familia se sacrificó y emigró como parte de la diáspora puertorriqueña para vivir y trabajar en Estados Unidos. Como parte de la primera generación nacida aquí, tengo la oportunidad de perseguir mis sueños. Las mujeres migrantes y la comunidad inmigrante son la columna vertebral de la cadena alimentaria, aportando mano de obra esencial, conocimiento cultural e integridad y resiliencia en cada etapa, desde la finca hasta la mesa. Para mí es fundamental participar en la defensa de los derechos,

especialmente apoyando y protegiendo a las mujeres en todos los espacios.


Call to Action

Want to support the people who sustain your community?

Many migrant women workers, including farmworkers, face workplace conditions that worsen mental health, such as harassment in the workplace, wage theft and lack of paid family leave. People who migrate for work, such as those employed in agriculture, face a variety of challenges with accessing mental health care. Join Justice for Migrant Women as we call on our elected leaders to expand access to mental health resources for all people employed in agriculture.
