Nadín Reyes Maldonado became a human rights defender in May 2007 when her father Edmundo Reyes Amaya and his friend Gabriel Alberto Cruz Sánchez were forcibly disappeared by the Mexican government. Although she was working as a teacher, she soon found that searching for her father and fighting for justice became a full-time commitment. In order to continue, she founded the Committee of Family Members of the Disappeared and Detained “Until We Find Them.”
