Dollis requested that we only use her first name to protect her privacy over concerns about her immigration status.<\/p>\n<p>Dollis came with her late daughter, who had cerebral palsy. Within a week, MMHT secured an adapted wheelchair for Dollis\u2019 daughter, who could no longer fit in a standard baby stroller.<\/p>\n<p>Before receiving the help, Dollis struggled to navigate health care for her daughter in a new country.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n\n\t<div  class=\"vc_col-sm-2 vc_hidden-sm vc_hidden-xs wpb_column column_container vc_column_container col no-extra-padding inherit_tablet inherit_phone \"  data-padding-pos=\"all\" data-has-bg-color=\"false\" data-bg-color=\"\" data-bg-opacity=\"1\" data-animation=\"\" data-delay=\"0\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"vc_column-inner\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t<div class=\"wpb_widgetised_column wpb_content_element\">\n\t\t<div id=\"sidebar\" data-nectar-ss=\"true\" class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div id=\"custom_html-4 1articleright\" class=\"widget_text widget widget_custom_html\"><h3 id=\"wordpress-popular-posts\" class=\"widget-title\">WordPress Popular Posts<\/h3><div class=\"textwidget custom-html-widget\"><h4 id=\"trending-posts\" class=\"widget-title\">Trending Posts<\/h4><div class=\"wpp-shortcode\"><script type=\"application\/json\" data-id=\"wpp-shortcode-inline-js\">{\"title\":\"Trending Posts\",\"limit\":\"3\",\"offset\":0,\"range\":\"custom\",\"time_quantity\":\"124\",\"time_unit\":\"day\",\"freshness\":\"1\",\"order_by\":\"views\",\"post_type\":\"post\",\"pid\":\"\",\"exclude\":\"\",\"cat\":\"\",\"taxonomy\":\"category\",\"term_id\":\"\",\"author\":\"\",\"shorten_title\":{\"active\":false,\"length\":0,\"words\":false},\"post-excerpt\":{\"active\":false,\"length\":0,\"keep_format\":false,\"words\":false},\"thumbnail\":{\"active\":true,\"build\":\"predefined\",\"width\":\"240\",\"height\":\"160\"},\"rating\":false,\"stats_tag\":{\"comment_count\":false,\"views\":false,\"author\":false,\"date\":{\"active\":false,\"format\":\"F j, Y\"},\"category\":false,\"taxonomy\":{\"active\":false,\"name\":\"category\"}},\"markup\":{\"custom_html\":true,\"wpp-start\":\"&lt;ul class=&quot;wpp-list wpp-cardview&quot;&gt;\",\"wpp-end\":\"&lt;\\\/ul&gt;\",\"title-start\":\"&lt;h4 class=&quot;widget-title&quot;&gt;\",\"title-end\":\"&lt;\\\/h4&gt;\",\"post-html\":\"&lt;li&gt;{thumb} {title} {stats}&lt;\\\/li&gt;\"},\"theme\":{\"name\":\"\"}}<\/script><div class=\"wpp-shortcode-placeholder\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div> \n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t<div id=\"fws_69da5bb77de40\"  data-column-margin=\"default\" data-midnight=\"dark\"  class=\"wpb_row vc_row-fluid vc_row article-image\"  style=\"padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; \"><div class=\"row-bg-wrap\" data-bg-animation=\"none\" data-bg-animation-delay=\"\" data-bg-overlay=\"false\"><div class=\"inner-wrap row-bg-layer\" ><div class=\"row-bg viewport-desktop\"  style=\"\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"row_col_wrap_12 col span_12 dark left\">\n\t<div  class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column column_container vc_column_container col left_padding_desktop_3pct top_padding_desktop_0pct right_padding_desktop_3pct bottom_padding_desktop_0pct \"  data-padding-pos=\"all\" data-has-bg-color=\"false\" data-bg-color=\"\" data-bg-opacity=\"1\" data-animation=\"\" data-delay=\"0\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"vc_column-inner\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-with-aniamtion-wrap center\" data-max-width=\"100%\" data-max-width-mobile=\"default\" data-shadow=\"none\" data-animation=\"fade-in\" >\r\n      <div class=\"inner\">\r\n        <div class=\"hover-wrap\"> \r\n          <div class=\"hover-wrap-inner\">\r\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-with-animation skip-lazy \" data-delay=\"0\" height=\"1280\" width=\"1920\" data-animation=\"fade-in\" src=\"https:\/\/borderlessmag.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/2025.08.08_MobileMigrantHealthTeam_Dollis_01.jpg\" alt=\"The sunset light illuminates the highlights in Dollis&#039; brown hair.

The group hired her to assist other families with children with disabilities. For the past year, MMHT has been interviewing parents of children with disabilities and parents of infants to understand their medical reasons and experiences.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c[Dollis] knows what our vulnerable families with kids with disabilities need and is the fiercest advocate for them,\u201d Izquierdo said.<\/p>\n<p>Tragically, during the hiring process, Dollis\u2019 13-year-old daughter passed away from complications related to cerebral palsy.<\/p>\n<p>Since her daughter\u2019s passing, Dollis has become even more committed to ensuring families like hers receive essential services and care. On any given day, she has multiple tabs open on a laptop with her phone by her side as she schedules doctors&#8217; appointments, arranges patient transportation, transcribes audio files to Spanish, and prepares childcare items for clients with children with disabilities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI had the spark to be able to solve things in the best way possible and quickly,\u201d Dollis told Borderless in Spanish.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"moving-forward\">Moving forward<\/h2>\n<p>Amid the state and federal challenges, MMHT continues to push past the changing political landscape to provide critical support. They also recognize the limitations that come with a lack of priority in funding health care.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, MMHT hosts fundraisers for life-saving surgeries for its patients.<\/p>\n<p>Izquierdo noted that major surgeries are expensive and require few resources. Still, the group tries to find a way to ensure these critical surgeries happen.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this summer, MMHT created a GoFundMe account and helped raise nearly $6,000 toward surgery for a 13-year-old boy who previously suffered <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gofundme.com\/f\/help-daniel-eat-for-the-first-time-surgery-fundraiser\">esophageal trauma<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor his father, this surgery is the end of an 11-year journey of hope and sacrifice,\u201d Izquierdo wrote on the GoFundMe account. \u201cFor \u2018Daniel\u2019, it\u2019s the beginning of something he has only dreamed of \u2014 eating lunch with friends at school, and sharing desserts with his siblings.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>MMHT has successfully fundraised for two of its three patients.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, MMHT has raised over <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gofundme.com\/f\/the-mobile-migrant-health-team\">$70,800<\/a> to buy medications, supplies, and equipment to continue running a free clinic. Izquierdo said crowdfunding support is essential as funding dries up elsewhere and new challenges emerge for immigrants.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow more than ever, grassroots funding is probably going to be largely what we rely on to move forward,\u201d Izquierdo said.<\/p>\n<p><i>Aydali Campa and Alondra Castaneda provided translation support.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>
