• DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES: The Mixteco/Indigena Community Organizing Project (MICOP) is a group of English, Spanish, and indigenous Mexican language speaking people who have come together to aid the Oaxacan immigrant community in Ventura County. The "Necessities of Life" program distributes clothing, diapers, blankets, and other items to those in need. A partnership with FOOD Share allows us to distribute food to 100 needy families each month. The "Access to Medical Care" project brings pregnant women into early prenatal care, provides ongoing education, and enables pregnant couples to attend a hospital orientation conducted in their own language. The "Education Project," a basic literacy class for adults, is held every Sunday so working families are able to attend. Monthly community meetings are held the last Saturday of each month from 5 pm to 7 pm.
