Yolanda Nunez has asked me to post this:

 I had the opportunity to work with migrant women who had been stopped and picked up at the border in Arizona and instead of being deported back to their own countries were incarcerated in Florence, Arizona a prison not only for women but men as well. However the men caught and detained at the border were taken across and left on the other side whereas the women were locked up, no contact with anybody and later transferred to a womens prison in Las Vegas, Nevada with no explanation, this was a few years ago I was unable to get any other info on them. I had been doing a story or am doing I should say a photodocumentary "The Migrant
Woman's Journey". I would be interested in hearing from anyone who has
worked with migrant women facing this issue. Thanks
