New Mexico Immigrant Law Center Demands for Probe into Medical Neglect at Cibola County Correctional Center

Written By Kevin Hopper

The New Mexico Immigrant Law Center (NMILC) submits the instant complaint regarding a staggering and dangerous lack of medical care for migrants in ICE custody at the Cibola County Correctional Center (CCCC) in Milan, New Mexico. Shockingly, as recently as December 4, 2024, the DHS-ICE El Paso Field Office reported that only 55% of all medical positions at CCCC are filled. This employment shortage in CCCC creates extreme risks to the health and safety of asylum seekers detained there.

Despite clear regulatory requirements, medical care is universally inadequate for all types of medical vulnerabilities at CCCC.

The power of words and pictures has always been immense. From cave paintings and stained glass to the advents of the printing press, photography, television and of course, the Internet.

Words and pictures are everywhere. Lucky for me, I have a talent for crafting and combining them into powerful and effective communication.

I grew up fascinated with photography, then fine art and graphic design. I also stumbled upon my writing talent when a college professor accused me of plagiarism (the highest form of flattery?). A career in advertising seemed the obvious track, so that was my initial route. However, my diverse skillset and ravenous appetite for learning new applications, tools and programs pushed me into journalism, art direction, digital publishing, UX/UI, AI, etc. This constant technological multiplicity keeps me both engaged, challenged, and admittedly, a bit overwhelmed.

Yet what remains constant? Words and pictures.

Regardless of industry, words and pictures are important. This is something that every successful company demands, and armed with the ability to craft both into effective communication, it is a thrill for me to perform.

My career path has been far from standard, but it has opened my creative mind to a multitude of applications and perspectives. Along the way, I have worked with and for some extraordinary people from all walks of life. I celebrate diversity in all forms and continue to seek and solve new communication problems via my design entity Hoppervision.

When time allows, I create artwork, take photos, cook impulsively, collect vintage furniture and snowboard when possible.

Let’s talk creativity in terms of solving your communications issues…

…over a taut espresso, of course!
