It's a hot, sticky April morning in the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas, just 10 miles from the Mexican border, and I'm driving with Dora Proa, a reproductive health community educator for a local organization called ACCESS Esperanza. We've just passed a field of scrub trees and grazing cattle, and entered a neighborhood that will go unnamed. Unnamed because it's a colonia — one of hundreds of unincorporated subdivisions in the area that lack running water and street lighting — and it's filled with poor and frightened people. Many of them are undocumented immigrants.
