ready to join the march?
Participants are invited to join the CIW and their allies for the entire march (200-miles), or for several miles along the way.
There are many different ways to participate, such as marching for 3, 6 or 15+ miles, joining farmworkers in the evenings for community-building and nightly Publix vigils, assisting with water or lunch breaks and, most importantly, bringing your friends and family to the 6-mile culminating march on Sunday, March 17 at 11:30 am - to be followed by a rally at 4 pm at the Publix corporate headquarters.
Allies from across the state and country are encouraged to join the CIW for this important action. Meals, modest lodging and transportation to and from the airport will be provided for registered participants.
