Trainer's Notes
Talk to participants about how the migratory population is a unique group, due to the nature of the work it does.
Have participants work in small groups to complete the table, Migratory Workers and Their Families, identifying characteristics of migratory families and what might cause that characteristic to develop.
You may wish to complete the first example together; refer to the key for guidance.
When all groups have finished, click to display “debrief” on slide; review and discuss the responses orally and record on your trainer copy.
Refer to the list of common characteristics of migratory agricultural workers and fishers in Chapter 1 of the National ID&R Manual and note characteristics that may not have been mentioned by participants.
Remind participants to record the migratory family characteristics in their Outline (p. 1).
End the segment by telling participants that having identified characteristics common to migratory families, they now will spend time thinking about what characteristics a recruiter should possess to best meet the needs of migratory families.
