MEET JUDGE LINA HIDALGOJudge Lina Hidalgo was raised in an
immigrant family. She knows first-hand
the sacrifices hard-working Texans make
every day to build a better life for their
families. Judge Hidalgo was born in
Colombia during the drug war. Her parents
had two goals: to keep their children safe
and to help them get a good education.
Judge Hidalgo grew up in Peru and
Mexico, before job opportunities brought
her parents to the United States in 2005.
She is a proud product of our public
schools and, as her parents dreamed, she
went on to a top university. She graduated from Stanford University
with a degree in political science the same year she became a U.S.
citizen.
Since arriving in Texas, Judge Hidalgo has been committed to giving
back.
She has dedicated hundreds of hours to our county’s most
vulnerable communities — working at the Texas Civil Rights Project, to
serving as a Spanish-English medical interpreter at the Texas Medical
Center, and supporting immigrants in search of lost loved ones. While
pursuing a joint degree in law and public policy at NYU and Harvard,
Judge Hidalgo researched criminal justice policies and coordinated
with advocacy groups and governments to push for reform.
Wherever she has been, Judge Hidalgo has seized opportunities
to serve the immigrant and incarcerated communities. In Southeast
Asia, she worked to promote transparency and accountability by
supporting journalists, bloggers and artists. At Stanford, she helped
create and fund a program to bring Stanford students to public policy
positions.
Judge Hidalgo was elected on November the 6, 2018 and sworn in
as Harris County Judge on January 1, 2019.
