Caroline Andrews was born in St. Louis, Missouri, raised in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and has lived in several other states and countries. Caroline developed a global awareness at a young age, which continues to influence her goals and work. Caroline has experienced the impact human behavior has on the environment, which fuels her interest in learning about how environmental law can impact children and future generations.

Caroline earned her Bachelors in Special Education from the University of Missouri. Caroline has worked with children of every age, ability level, and from countless cultural backgrounds over the past ten years through both paid and volunteer work. During her time in the classroom, Caroline became frustrated by the lack of resources available to special education students and witnessed the education system failing to meet the individual needs of students with and without disabilities. Caroline experienced the heartbreak of knowing no matter how much she did for a student in the classroom her students’ success was subject to issues outside of her control such as: the student home environment, mental health, socioeconomic status, adverse childhood experiences and countless other barriers to success. Working with students was one of the reasons she chose to attend law school, in hopes of one day working with legislature to change laws in order to improve outcomes for students, enforce laws put in place to protect children and their future success, and to decrease the school to prison pipeline that funnels students of color and students with disabilities at disproportionately high rates.

Caroline’s educational philosophy is that everyone deserves the opportunity to learn in a way that is accessible to them. Caroline recognizes the importance of meeting students’ essential needs in order to improve their educational outcomes. Caroline is interested in the legal aspect of special education and disability rights because although there has been radical change over the last 50 years there is still significant room for improvement. Caroline cherished her time working with students, but was left with more questions than answers, and knew she was not finished with her own education. She chose to attend UNM School of Law to learn more about the legal system and what she could do to prevent it from negatively impacting students and the education system.

Working as a sexual health advocate and peer educator at the University of Missouri showed her the importance of sexual health education and advocacy on both a local and global scale. This experience taught her how influential laws can be when it comes to comprehensive sexual health education and access to LGBTQIA informed healthcare. She learned how critical sexual health education is for children with and without disabilities beginning in infancy and continuing to reinforce positive conversations about sexual health. In a perfect would Caroline would write medically accurate, age appropriate, LGBTQIA inclusive, sexual health education into the common core curriculum at every grade level.

Growing up in Albuquerque New Mexico, Aanika Mike has a passion for service that burns as hot as chile. The daughter of a registered nurse and a firefighter, she always has a zeal for serving her community. Her parents instilled in her the values of service, ethics, and helping others. He molded herself after her two biggest role models who were everyday heroes as far as she was concerned. She wanted to be someone’s hero too.

Aanika attended New Mexico State University and graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Biochemistry and another in Biology with a minor in Chemistry. Originally, Aanika had wanted to be a dentist since about five years of age. She pursued that dream throughout her time in undergrad, all the while realizing he passion for helping others extended to more than just smiles. She became the president of the New Mexico State chapter of the Gamma Beta Phi Honor Society. In this role she organized several service projects and found she had developed a real love for helping out in any way that she could. Most of her weekends were spent cleaning up the streets of Las Cruces, helping out at the local soup kitchen, or getting involved with the various service projects the University sponsored. She decided after graduating that she would take a few years off from school to really figure out what she wanted in life.

During this time, she took a hard look introspectively. It wasn’t that she had given up on her dream of being a dentist, she just realized that dream and the person she had become were no longer the right fit. She felt another calling. The reoccurring question became, “Could I really be a dentist knowing that my patients were having immigration problems, educational inequalities, or losing out on basic human rights?” The answer was no. She couldn’t. She began to brain-storm ideas on how she could use her skills and abilities to make the most change. Becoming a lawyer who advocated for the ones that needed help the most seemed to be the career path that really suited her.

Aanika had all this passion and no direction while she applied for law school. She wanted to gain more experience in her newly chosen field and earned an internship as the New Mexico state legislature with the Legislative Education Study Committee. This was a life changing experience for her. She learned so much during her time with the committee and how laws and policies affected New Mexico’s most vulnerable population; Children. She worked closely with a program evaluator who at the time was evaluating community schools. This type of school system utilizes supports from the community to help the child succeed as a whole. It includes ensuring these children have basic needs like three meals a day, clothes and shoes, are engaged before and after school, as well as helping to keep the parents involved in what is going on in their child’s life. These schools tend to be in underprivileged areas and affect New Mexico’s most at risk youths. While working on this project she was able to see how beneficial these support systems could really be, and how important one positive influence can be in a child’s life. With her law degree, she wants to add another layer of support to help these kids. Whether it is helping to improve their immigration status, addressing racial inequalities, or working to bridge the learning gap. This is the type of law she is passionate about pursuing. She doesn’t yet know where that passion will take her, but she is determined to make a difference.

To help offer a voice to those who struggle to be heard is Chelsey Pelzman’s main motivation in pursuing her JD. Growing up in Albuquerque, Chelsey has returned home to dedicate her time and energy to serving New Mexico’s most vulnerable children and families. She attended Texas Tech University and received a bachelor’s degree in Human Development and Family Studies and a minor in Addiction Disorders and Recovery Services.

While in Lubbock, Chelsey spent her time interning with the Lubbock County Juvenile Justice Department and building community with the Addiction and Recovery Department of Texas Tech. Witnessing what humans can do when given the tools to better themselves and build a life of celebration started a fire in Chelsey’s dedication to serving people.

After graduation, Chelsey spent her time working as a Treatment Coordinator at a Treatment Foster Care agency in Albuquerque that served the most vulnerable youth in New Mexico. She witnessed countless acts of trauma, family disunity, and severe injustice in the system that exists when it comes to abuse and neglect in New Mexico. It was at this time that Chelsey decided she wanted to pursue a law degree and become a Guardian Ad Litem as well as focus on policy that centers around helping those that face adversity in New Mexico.

Chelsey then worked at the Sandoval County Detention Center as a Discharge Planner. It was her job to assist inmates in finding rehab centers or safe homes to go to after being released. She then worked at Casa Q, a safe living option for homeless LGBTQ youth (one of the absolute greatest places on earth). It was in these experiences that she witnessed just how much individuals can blossom when given the tools to excel and meet their needs. She then worked at the Child Support Enforcement Division and observed once again the circular pattern of poverty in New Mexico.

Chelsey does not know exactly what her future will look like with a JD, but she knows her passion is fierce and she will do whatever she can to humbly serve and advocate for those who deserve to be heard but are often disregarded.

“There was no expectation that I would go to college.” Coming from someone with a BA, an MA, and, soon, a JD, that statement seems inconceivable. Yet, a peek into Natalie “Nat” Saing’s life brings understanding. Nat’s family arrived in the United States as refugees after escaping the Cambodian genocide in the late 1970s. Despite escaping the war, her family struggled to adjust to their new life. As such, her upbringing was a fight. She grew up watching her father work two jobs while single-handedly raising her and her sisters in a cramped apartment with little food on the table. Still, thanks to the sacrifice of her father and the encouragement of her teachers, Nat went on to become the first in her family to graduate from college. She then worked for a law firm in Portland, OR, but that experience extinguished in her any desire to pursue a career in the law.

Years later, that desire was reignited at a conference for organizations serving Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) communities – something that Nat had dedicated her life to doing following her time at the law firm. She had mentored low-income (at times, homeless) first-generation Asian American men through the college application process. She organized racial equity trainings for teachers and administrators in Portland on racism and anti-oppression. She helped AAPI immigrant and refugee survivors of violence by organizing culturally-specific and traditional healing spaces. At this conference, Nat saw something she never expected: a panel of AAPI attorneys, all female, who were working with female inmates in deportation proceedings. “It was amazing because they looked like me, and the clients they were serving looked like me.” Nat made a commitment that day to use the law to benefit the community she loves. Today, she is on her way.

Jessica Arreola insists that “when you have a passion you have to pursue it no matter how many doors are closed on you.” Truly she talks the talk and walks the walk.

After applying to the UNM School of Law, Jessica was denied. After applying to the UNM School of Law again, Jessica was again denied. Finally, after applying for a third time, Jessica was accepted to the UNM School of Law. Since middle school, Jessica knew that wanted to attend law school. Coming from a family of Mexican immigrants, she is the first in her family to complete her Bachelor’s degree, the first in her family to complete her Master’s degree, and is now the first in her family to pursue a Law degree.

For Jessica, this is not about her. She is doing this for her daughters and for working mothers: “I want to empower women. They do have a path to this. If I can, you can.” With two little girls, she believes that “having babies empowers women.” Her interests in the law are twofold, yet they intersect. On the one hand she is interested in combating oppression when it comes to women, and on the other hand she is interested in serving immigrants. While still finishing her Master’s program, Jessica began working for an immigration law firm. That reaffirmed that she desired to serve immigrant families. For Jessica, she loved helping families because, as opposed to other areas of the law where there is a clear winner and loser, the positive, life-changing possibilities of immigration law create a win-win outcome.

"I don’t feel like I have a clear path,” says Yarrow Allaire regarding her legal career as she will soon become the first lawyer in her family. Local to Albuquerque, Yarrow grew up in the South Valley and attended Highland High School in the International District. She became aware early on in her life of the existence of racial and socioeconomic inequities. That awareness laid the foundation for her goal to work to increase equity for vulnerable populations. While at Highland, she participated in “The We the People: The Citizen and the Constitution Program." This experience planted the seeds for her desire to use the law as her means to accomplish her goal.

Yarrow went on to graduate from UNM with her Bachelor’s degree thereafter participated in Teach for America. That took her to McAllen, TX where she taught for two years and then Santa Fe, NM where she taught for one year at Capital High School. Despite enjoying teaching, she felt the system dis-incentivized the profession, and at age 23, with three years of teaching under her belt, she was already burnt out. During year three, she began studying for the LSAT and applied to UNM Law with her heart set on the Child & Family Justice Scholarship due to her commitment to pursuing equity for vulnerable populations. Today, Yarrow is still discovering what she can do with a law degree. As a Peggy Browning Fellow last summer, she was exposed to many possibilities. Regardless of what she ultimately decides on, one thing is clear for Yarrow regarding her career path: she will be doing work she is proud of-work to pursue equity.

"Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you." This Bible verse served as a catalyst for bringing Kateri Garcia West to the UNM School of Law. Kateri was born and raised in the South Valley of Albuquerque, NM. Her passion for science and math coupled with the sacrifices that her parents made to give her the best quality education resulted in her being accepted to and attending the MIT. She was told she would not make it in the field as a Hispanic woman. She proved that idea wrong as she went on work for Medtronic in Minneapolis and later in Albuquerque.

Everything changed for Kateri when she gave birth to her daughter and became a stay at home mom. It was during this period of her life that she began to evaluate what was important in life. That was when the aforementioned Bible verse really came alive to her. This led to her becoming a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) in Farmington, NM. It was while she was representing her client that a seed was planted: "Sitting in children’s court I just felt this calling unlike anything." She attended the Children’s Law Institute where she met Beth Gillia, and after that that she applied to the UNM School of Law. Thanks to her previous career in the medical device industry, she brings skills such as networking, negotiating, budgeting, and working under deadlines to the practice of law. However, her time as a CASA taught her to listen well. "If you can’t hear your client’s needs, you can’t advocate for everything they need." Kateri is here to advocate.

Lionel Betsch is a man on the move. Following his graduation from Duke University, Lionel began teaching in Thoreau, NM, which became his first bond to New Mexico. He especially enjoyed the challenge of preparing students who would become the first in their families to attend and graduate from college. Having fallen in love, he then moved to Canada to be with the woman who would become his wife. The two of them then moved to Cimarron, NM, where Lionel taught English and coached the boys basketball team that took 3rd in the 1998 State Tournament. The family moved to Albuquerque where he taught first at Rio Rancho High School, then for his final 10 years of teaching, at Highland High School. After retiring from 25 years of teaching in the New Mexico public school system in May 2017, he started law school in August 2017.

Lionel sees his years of teaching as time very well spent. He realized he was not only helping the kids in his classroom but their kids as well. He encouraged his students to “be brave in life,” words that he took to heart as he made the transition from high school teacher to law school student. He will be the first to tell you that he is out of his comfort zone. Nevertheless, law school has been the intellectual and personal challenge he wanted. He is making the most of his time at UNM School of Law and feels privileged to be here: “I love UNM School of Law. I think this is a gem.” His hope is to work in the law for a more just society and to make it easier for people to pursue their educational and career goals.

For a long time, Sarah Hyde thought all lawyers were evil. Fortunately for New Mexico, her perspective changed when she began to understand the power of effective, heart-led advocacy. Born and raised in Albuquerque, Sarah was always familiar with the needs of New Mexico, but it was not until she attended Connecticut College that she became aware of the disparities in the quality of public education that exist from state to state. While At Connecticut College, Sarah focused her studies on Anthropology and Human Development, in which ethnography is a fundamental practice and something she brings to legal practice. “As advocates, we need to ask questions differently,” she says. Furthermore, she believes that some of the strongest skills that advocates can implement are being empathetic and open.

Sarah comes from a family of individuals committed to serving children, so it makes sense that she would feel the same way. She has taught children as a dance instructor, worked in summer camps, and served children with disabilities. She took her skills to New Mexico Voices for Children where she was employed as a Policy Analyst. The W.K. Kellogg Foundation helps fund that organization, so for Sarah, it made sense to apply for the similarly-funded Child & Family Justice Scholarship. Sarah is drawn to public interest as well as policy work. Understanding the power of research thanks to her background in ethnography, she insists that decision-makers must consult with the people impacted, what she calls a “bottom up approach.” She is motivated to create lasting, systemic change.

Since she was 10 years old, Liz Carrasco Gallardo planned on becoming a lawyer, specifically so that she could defend her parents. In 1998, her family migrated from Chihuahua. She was five years old at the time and recalls the struggle her family faced in adjusting. Growing up as an undocumented immigrant was a scary experience for her: “I understood my position at a really young age. I knew we had a different life.” This made her especially protective of her parents.

Before law school, Liz worked with the Southwest Organizing Project as a community organizer focusing on socioeconomic issues. It was during this period of her life that she came into a deeper understanding of what it means to be a person of color, an immigrant, and a woman in America. She learned about oppression and xenophobia, which inspired an exploration of trauma. Liz went on to work for the NM Immigrant Law Center and served as a Board of Immigration Appeals Representative.

UNM School of Law feels like home to Liz. Her goal is to become “the lawyer that lawyers through empowerment,” and she views her law degree as a tool to keep fight for equity and justice for people of color. As she sees it, “this is the community’s degree.” She lauds the community for supporting her in this endeavor by providing food, coffee, scholarships, and even her initial seat deposit at UNM Law. At times, she questions why she is in law school, but she is able to ground herself each time with the knowledge that her community is counting on her, and her community believes in her.

“The laws won’t change until lawyers change.” Armed with this mentality, Victoria LeBlanc-Vialpando is living her dream. She has wanted to attend law school ever since she was in the 3rd grade, and now she is the first member of her family to attend law school. A number of Victoria’s family members and relatives have served New Mexico as educators. Her mother will soon retire after teaching in the Albuquerque Public School system for 25 years. Victoria’s brother is a P.E. teacher. One of her aunts is a teacher, and one of her uncles is a teacher for students with special needs. Victoria has witnessed the truth that serving as an educator in New Mexico is so much deeper than showing up to school to teach. She recalls seeing her mother take hygiene products to school because there were students who did not have any. Victoria knows that the demands on teachers go beyond what is listed in their job description.

After graduating from UNM with her Bachelor’s degree in May 2016, Victoria interned with the Albuquerque office for U.S. Senator Tom Udall. She worked in the Student Development Institute with the goal of attracting and transporting students in rural communities to seminars at UNM as well as increasing economic development in rural communities. From there, she transitioned to working for the Bregman Law Firm, P.C. where she still works. Victoria has come to understand that as a lawyer, “you represent people who can’t represent themselves,” and it is that understanding coupled with her background that have produced an interest in education law and children’s law. “Teachers and their students need a voice for them outside the classroom.”

“I’m here, and I’m with you.” These are the words that encapsulate Evelyn Ibarra-Ortiz’s trauma-informed, client-centered approach to legal advocacy. With criminology as her undergraduate major, Evelyn initially planned to pursue a career with the Federal Bureau of Investigation. However, an opportunity to work for Enlace Comunitario, a social justice organization led by Latina immigrants with the mission to eliminate domestic violence in the Latino immigrant community and promote healthy families in Central New Mexico, drastically changed Evelyn’s career aspirations. While working for Enlace, she became a Crisis Intervention Specialist putting her was on the front lines as she took calls from survivors of domestic abuse. The most rewarding part of working for Enlace was seeing the women and children she helped months down the road because they became different people.

Evelyn now hopes to work for the Law Offices of the Public Defender having interned there this past summer in the Serious Violent Offenses Division. Criminal defense was something that Evelyn’s former colleagues at Enlace could not understand, but she pointed out the common ground of working as a Criminal Defense Attorney and a Crisis Intervention Specialist: meeting someone during one of the worst times in their life and being there to help them. Evelyn acknowledges the fact that criminal defendants get a bad reputation, but her heart is to address the trauma that brought them to that point and mitigate its effect on the next generation.

As an anthropologist, Erin Marshall has worked in public health in New Mexico for over 17 years. She has helped establish three nonprofit organizations in the state as part of her concerted effort to secure good health for all New Mexicans. Erin is dedicated to her state. In fact, she has a strong inheritance when it comes to public service as her great, great grandfather, Ernest Bicknell served as the First National Director of the American Red Cross. Erin started off her career in public health with a focus on end of life care, and from there, she began working her way backwards with respect to age range. “We’re facing our first generation that’s not going to outlive its parents,” she says, and she is committed to changing that.

In turning her attention to the youngest in the state, Erin helped expand the Breastfeeding Taskforce across New Mexico. She then discovered that babies were dying in the newborn intensive care unit (NICU) because they did not have access to breast milk, which led her to fight for legislation in 2017 that would have created an insurance mandate to provide milk in the NICU. The insurance companies have pledged to update their policies and the result was the creation of the Human Milk Repository of New Mexico to ensure that it happens.

With her experience in the world of nonprofits and public service, Erin maintains a great relationship with the W. K. Kellogg Foundation, the sponsor of the Child & Family Justice Scholarship. The Foundation awarded a grant to one of her nonprofits in the past and is a partner in addressing the needs of children in New Mexico.

It is Ariana Montez’s goal in life to eradicate child sex trafficking in New Mexico. In 2016, after discovering that New Mexico has one of the worst human trafficking problems in the entire country, Ariana began working for a nonprofit service provider organization called The Life Link. In collaboration with an anti-human trafficking initiative affiliated with the NM Attorney General’s Office and Albuquerque Mayor Richard Berry, she was primarily involved with the Domestic Minors Sex Trafficking Task Force. Her responsibilities consisted of coordinating outreach and creating awareness of the issue. She organized a freedom walk in Santa Fe, NM that ended on the steps of the New Mexico State Capitol to educate the public on the issue in New Mexico. Ariana went on to obtain funding for another awareness campaign in Santa Fe. Additionally, her outreach and awareness campaign in Albuquerque has been successful in attracting callers to the 505-GET-FREE hotline.

All of this led Ariana to apply to and attend UNM School of Law where she has continued her activism, currently serving as President of the Women’s Law Caucus and President of the American Constitution Society for Law and Policy. She clerked for the Southwest Women’s Law Center and is currently clerking for the Attorney General’s Office. As a future attorney, she will advocate for laws that provide harsher punishments to traffickers. Ultimately, she intends to serve as counsel on behalf of children who have been the victims of child sex trafficking and work on providing trauma after-care for children, teens, and families affected by human trafficking.

On December 7, 2018, Emily Nitschke became a U.S. citizen. Originally from Australia, she and her family lived in Western Samoa before moving to Santa Fe, NM when she was nine years old as her father took a position at Los Alamos National Laboratory. She immediately noted the interaction of cultures and fell in love with New Mexico.

Emily went on to UNM studying Political Science with a focus on International Studies. Her goal was to enter the Peace Corps until she began working with the Refugee Well-being Project with UNM. As part of the program, she was paired with refugee families with responsibility of advocating for and transferring advocacy skills to the families to navigate life in a new country. At the time, Emily knew that New Mexico was a diverse state, but she had no idea of the degree. It was eye-opening to see refugees arrive in the U.S. and then get settled into poverty. Emily recalls one man saying that living in poverty in the U.S. is more difficult than living in a refugee camp. She began to be able to empathize with the people she met as she recalled that for her and her family, “the experience of moving to this country was hard enough even though we had every advantage in the world.”

Emily intends to focus on immigration law, especially family separation. The Child & Family Justice Scholarship is keeping her on her goal and reminding her that she came to law school to obtain an advanced skill to better advocate for immigrants.

“I made it here, and I need to extend a hand backwards.” This is Meagan Muñoz's mindset as she reflects on her journey thus far that has taken her from small-town Hobbs, NM to her second year at the UNM School of Law.

Meagan has a heart for children. In undergrad, she studied Psychology with an emphasis in child development. She spent her summers in San Diego, CA working with the YMCA. After graduating, she worked for a nonprofit called Playworks where she taught conflict resolution on the playgrounds of urban schools with low-income students. She then moved back to Hobbs, NM where she served four years as teacher, one in fourth-grade and three as a middle school coach. During those years, she witnessed the struggles students face in New Mexico. For instance, Meagan learned to keep a drawer full of food because she knew there were students that needed that support in order to learn in class.

Ultimately, there came a point for Meagan when she felt there was more work to do, so she became a CASA Volunteer. That is what led her to pursue her JD at the UNM School of Law. She wants to ensure students in New Mexico are well-supported and receive a quality education. For that reason, child advocacy and education policy are strong interests that influence Meagan’s study of the law. Eventually, she would like to serve as a Guardian ad Litem, a way to honor her time as a CASA Volunteer, and help influence the policy that will guide New Mexico toward a better path in education. Meagan has served on the board for the Southwest Women’s Law Center for over a year and is the student liaison for the Children’s Bar Section of the New Mexico State Bar. She still maintains contact with her former students, who remain the driving force behind her determination.

From Guatemala City, Guatemala to Albuquerque, NM Tara Roepke has taught in classrooms around the world. “Education is where my heart is,” she says, and it is her love for education that fueled her journey to law school. She earned her Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and her Master’s degree in Teacher Leadership.

Tara filled up an entire passport during her time away from New Mexico, giving her exposure to a variety of cultures and their education systems. While teaching in Guatemala, Tara had numerous supports and resources. She also shared responsibility of her class with other teachers. In Albuquerque, she worked 60 hours a week and still was unable to finish all of her tasks or give students what they truly needed. This was a turning point for Tara. She applied to UNM School of Law with the goal of impacting education. Tara wants children to have the opportunity to receive a quality education and support parents and teachers in the process. Having taught at a Title 1 school in Albuquerque, Tara says, “Every single social justice issue you can think of arises in the classroom,” and given her experiences, she has seen the inequity that exists.

Nevertheless, Tara has hope and positive feelings toward teaching. Her greatest struggle in law school is that she misses working with kids. She points out that there are “not a lot of jobs with 25 hugs a day.” In the future, Tara would like to open her own private nonprofit school to serve low socioeconomic and diverse populations.

“If I don’t try, how will I ever know?” This was the question that led Sun Vega to pursue her legal education at the UNM School of Law after working for over a decade as a health care administrator and management consultant.

Born in Albuquerque, NM, Sun and her family later moved to Portales, NM where she graduated from high school. She went on to pursue her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Business Administration at Eastern New Mexico University. When she graduated, the housing market hit the bubble, and with her husband pursuing a career in the mental health field at the time, Sun “fell into” the behavioral health field. She worked as a Business Manager for a small physician group practice that primarily served children and families with behavioral health needs. Over time, she became the Chief Operations Officer for one of the largest nonprofit children’s behavioral health organizations in the state. However, when 15 Medicaid behavioral health providers who comprised of nearly 90% state’s service capacity were accused of “credible allegations of fraud,” the majority of these organizations were forced to close their doors in 2013. As a result, she began consulting nationally, though it was not as fulfilling as working in her own community. The NM Attorney General has since cleared all the organizations of any wrongdoing.

When Sun decided to pursue her JD at the UNM School of Law, she was immediately drawn to the Child & Family Justice Scholarship because of the intersections between community behavioral health and the needs of New Mexico’s most vulnerable children and families. The fact that the UNM School of Law serves the people she cares about is something that she deeply appreciates. She aims to contribute to that effort.

Due to Sun’s exposure to a broad array of health systems and her work with a variety of nonprofit organizations, she saw a great need for assistance with navigating this complex landscape. For Sun, it begins with endeavoring to secure the fundamental human right to health care and advocating for the needs of New Mexico’s children and families. From there, Sun aims to use her background, skills, and education to help New Mexicans get to a point where we can rebuild and expand access to health and human services opportunities for the betterment of our future.
