Francisco Olachea "Pancho" Martin is a street nurse in Nogales, Sonora, Mexico and works with Voices from the Border to support migrants waiting for their asylum hearings.
We talked about his desire to change people's moments in the midst of difficult circumstances, his determination to pursue a nursing degree in his 50s, and the difficult realities he must accept while working in proximity with the cartels who control much of the migrant activity.
