FAMILY STORY:
Soledad is a single mother originally from Oaxaca, Mexico. She has two children, Jose Luis who is 6 years old and Ana Yuri who is 5 years old. They are taken care of by her cousins while she works night shifts from 5 PM to 4 AM at the packaging center. She earns a small weekly salary of about $74 USD of which she has to divide up between the care of her children, food, and the payments for her property.
Soledad separated from the father of her children two years ago because he did not contribute to the family and instead used up all their money on personal things and his family was always arguing with Soledad, so because of these things she decided to separate and be on her own with her children.
Soledad lives on a little piece of land on which she was able to make payments, and has a little house/room made of wood and cardboard in very bad condition.
