 CHAPTER V--EMPLOYMENT AND TRAINING ADMINISTRATION, DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
 
PART 633--MIGRANT AND SEASONAL FARMWORKER PROGRAMS--Table of Contents
 
                   Subpart A--Introductory Provisions
 
Sec. 633.102  Scope and purpose of title IV, section 402 programs.


    (a) It is the purpose of title IV, section 402, of the Act to 
provide job training, employment opportunities, and other services for 
those individuals who suffer chronic seasonal unemployment and 
underemployment in the agriculture industry. These conditions have been 
substantially aggravated by continual advancements in technology and 
mechanization resulting in displacement and contribute significantly to 
the Nation's rural employment problem. These factors substantially 
affect the entire national economy.
    (b) Because of farmworker employment and training problems, such 
programs shall be centrally administered at the national level. Programs 
and activities supported under this section shall in accordance with 
section 402(c)(3) of the Act:
    (1) Enable farmworkers and their dependents to obtain or retain 
employment;
    (2) Allow participation in other program activities leading to their 
eventual placement in unsubsidized agricultural or nonagricultural 
employment;
    (3) Allow activities leading to stabilization in agricultural 
employment; and
    (4) Include related assistance and supportive services.
