From Nursing to City Hall

Martha Abraham is a longtime NICU nurse turned community advocate running to bring compassion, accountability, and lived experience to San Diego City Hall.

As an immigrant, single mother, and grassroots organizer, she has spent over a decade fighting for families; first at the bedside, and now in the neighborhoods too often overlooked. 

Martha’s career has been driven by one mission: to ensure every child, every family, and every community has the safety, dignity, and opportunity to thrive.
