Joseph is PC(USA)'s coordinator for migration issues, advocacy, and mission in northern Central America. El Salvador suffers from low economic growth, poverty, violence, and industrial pollution. Multiple events are available to meet Carmen and Joseph and learn about work in El Salvador aiding migrants, preventing violence, and responding to natural disasters.
