Leadership transition at Ciudad Juárez Municipal DIF

Overview

Rubí Enríquez Parada concluded her tenure as president of the Municipal System for Integral Family Development (DIF) in Ciudad Juárez. During her fifth activity report, municipal leaders, including interim mayor Cruz Pérez Cuéllar and mayor Héctor Ortiz Orpinel, praised her impact on vulnerable populations such as children, the elderly, and people with disabilities.

At the time of her report, Enríquez suggested a political need for “a female governor is needed in Chihuahua,” a comment that sparked speculation regarding the 2027 gubernatorial race. Following her departure, Enríquez stated that serving the community was ‘the greatest honor of my life’ and indicated her intention to support her husband’s political projects.

Leadership transitions for the DIF were announced in stages, with Angélica Mendoza Beltrán initially named as her successor, followed by the announcement that Lucía Chavira Acosta would take charge of the municipal institution.
