When on the topic of female empowerment, Milka wanted to make one thing clear: Women can. “Yes, yes, we can. It’s just a matter of taking that first step and continue moving forward”. She describes Adelante Mujeres as the complete package. “They have the tools to allow people to reach their goals. It’s like, ‘Okay, I feel empowered now, I can reach my goals’”.

At Ft. Bliss, a U.S. border detention center in El Paso, migrant children have been living in alarming conditions - where disease is rampant, food can be dangerous, and there are reports of sexual abuse, an investigation by the BBC has found.

Adelante Mujeres joins forces with other agencies to support the national “Free Them All” campaign to advocate for people who are unjustly detained.
