The Administrative Records document the beginnings of the Migrant Health Promotion and the formation of its various programs. It has been divided into three subseries, records from 1982-1989, 1990-1996, and records after 1997. The largest and most substantive portion of the first subseries is a set of "Administrative and Policy Notebooks." These are of two sorts: (1) three volumes cover the years 1983-1984 and include the MMHIO statement of purpose and philosophy, study of the migrant "stream" north and maps listing location of migrant health care facilities, and notes of MMHIO personnel who visited the various camps; (2) 4 volumes probably intended as the executive director's ready reference files and consisting of quarterly reports, financial reports, grant proposals, and related information. Another significant set of materials is a set of volumes labeled "Grant Proposals" and consisting of the various proposals made by MMHIO to state and federal agencies to fund its program of migrant health services directories and more especially its program of migrant camp health aides. The later subseries also contains grants proposals, as well as other fundraising strategies and the organization's strategic planning materials.
