EFC 80th Anniversary Celebration: Honoring our Past and Creating our Future

We invite you to celebrate the EFC’s impact and leadership legacy while connecting with other alums and supporters. This is an intergenerational gathering — and an opportunity to participate in the EFC’s work. Jason Warwin (alum 1989) and Deanna Mousseau (alum 2015-17) will be our Co-Emcees. There will be a video showing EFC’s impact and we will honor former Executive Director Margot Gibney and former Education Director Jane Sapp.

On October 10, we held our “Votemaxxing with EFC!” InterGen Café. As with every InterGen Café, the inspiration and empowerment lie in the conversations and community-building in the breakout groups. Inspiration was provided by several people including EFC alum Miles Rapoport and EFC Program Director Jesus Salcido. A Voting Resource List was shared.

PFSP Branches Out from its EFC Roots

PFSP Branches Out from its EFC Roots

PSFP has branched out from its EFC roots! We are excited to announce the news that the Pesticide-Free Soil Project recently became its own nonprofit 501(c)(3). Since its beginning at an EFC summer program, the PFSP has grown each year, collaborating with local non-profits focused on alternatives to pesticides in school landscaping, farmworker health, and regenerative agriculture.

2026 Encampment Summer Program: Week Three

2026 Encampment Summer Program: Week Three

In week three of the Encampment summer program, Encampers met with local farmworkers to learn about their lives and share a meal. A vital part of the week was the continuation of the powerful youth-led workshops for their peers and staff. This week’s workshops were: Climate Justice, Education, Mental Health, and Immigration & Unfair Justice Systems. The 2026 InterGen provided an opportunity for the Encampers to share what they have learned and intergenerational dialogue.

In week two of the 2026 Encampment, Encampers delved into “How Did We Get Here,” starting by looking at their home communities. They then traced their families’ stories of migration/movement and the societal factors involved. Thursday brought a unique opportunity to travel to Limuw Island with members of the Chumash community. Encampers also began a series of youth-led workshops, starting with the issue of gun violence.
