How can proximity and presence change perspectives? This is what we learn from Gustavo De Los Rios and his experience mentoring youth and walking alongside immigrant families in their experience navigating the complexities of our legal system.

Gustavo De Los Rios currently serves as the Juárez Shelter Connector. Through personal experience growing up on the border and crossing between both Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, Mexico and El Paso, TX, to visit family and friends, he is passionate about bringing awareness and collaborative solutions to the border issues faced every day by migrants.
