The Legacy of Larry B. Sanchez 

Lazaro "Larry" B. Sanchez was a loving husband, father and leader to the farmworker community. He was one of Oregon Human Development Corporation's earliest executive directors when OHDC became its own entity in 1979. He later became a Regional Director of Employment Services in Washington's Employment Security Department, serving the Central Washington region and being a prominent advocate for farmworkers in the Yakima Valley.  Larry remained connected to OHDC/NHDC as the Board Chair for several years, guiding and advising several former and current executive directors.  He served farmworkers tirelessly throughout his career and always spoke up on farmworker issues.  OHDC/NHDC would not be the organization it is today without Larry’s passion and drive for serving farmworkers in local, state, and national arenas.
