Isabel Turbios

sister

Sister Isabel Turbios is the director of Frontera Digna, a shelter in Piedras Negras, Mexico, that has transitioned from accommodating primarily Mexican deportees to serving a diverse range of migrants from various countries. With three decades of experience in humanitarian work, she has witnessed significant changes in migration patterns and policies, particularly following the recent shift in U.S. immigration policy under the Trump administration. Sister Isabel advocates for the rights and dignity of migrants, emphasizing the need for compassion and understanding rather than stigmatization, and has been actively involved in providing support and resources to those seeking refuge in Mexico.
