Mecca, Calif. — This week the Galilee Center’s Mecca Comfort Station addition officially opened to provide much-needed services for migrant farm workers in the Eastern Coachella Valley.
The comfort station offers field workers and their families access to showers, restrooms, laundry services and a community room. The purpose of this facility, according to Gloria Gomez, co-founder of The Galilee Center, is to help serve migrant farm workers who often have limited or no housing options without a place to shower or wash their clothes after a hard day’s work.
