Jazmin, a dedicated travel nurse and DACA recipient, opens up about the profound fears she harbors for her family in the United States. Having arrived undocumented, her family has faced the stigma often associated with immigrants, being labeled as criminals who are stealing jobs and benefits. However, Jazmin wishes to challenge these misconceptions by sharing her story.
Living in a constant state of limbo due to shifting immigration policies, particularly those enacted during the Trump administration, Jazmin grapples with the anxiety that her loved ones could be targeted for deportation. The uncertainty weighs heavily on her, as she strives to build a future while navigating a system that often feels hostile to individuals like her.
Despite the challenges, Jazmin remains committed to her work and her community, hoping to foster understanding and empathy towards immigrant families. Her journey serves as a reminder of the resilience and contributions of those who continue to fight for a place in society.
