Gang members gave her an ultimatum: give them her oldest daughter, or they would all be killed. Gemina sent her daughters ahead to safety in the United States. Several weeks later, when she sought asylum to join them, she was detained for nearly two years in Arizona. “Nothing was worse than being away from my daughters,” said Gemina. NIJC secured Gemina’s release from detention so she could reunite with her daughters, and after years of advocacy alongside a pro bono team, Gemina won legal status. “Now I can be at ease, live in peace. I can work. I can be of service to my family and society… Without [NIJC’s] help, none of this would've been possible,” she said. Without YOUR help, none of this is possible. By making our mission your mission, you stand for justice. Will you help others like Gemina and make your gift today? Your donation will be matched if you give before November 25th!
