- Arvin was one of many camps that were set up under the Federal Migrant Labor Camp Program. Under the New Deal thousands of camps for displaced farm workers had been created. The New Deal migrant camp program shifted its approach after a three year survey was completed in 1934. The survey was conducted by the California Division of Immigration and Housing and it reported in regards to the existing camps "No provision is made for sanitation, water supply, or even general camp cleanliness". Photographers such as Dorothea Lange documented the suffering and mistreatment that was occurring at the camps and so the government decided to build two "demonstration camps". One of those was built in Kern County in 1935 and was called the Arvin Federal Government Camp. The camp at Arvin "became the prototype for the entire migrant labor program." Originally the Arvin Federal Government Camp was managed by the Resettlement Administration. But in 1937 the Farm Security Administration replaced the Resettlement Administration which made it in charge of the camp in Arvin. (en)
