Early Life and Education
He was a quiet and shy young man from Clifton who struggled to make ends meet. He had grown up in foster care and at times was homeless, living in motels or cars or group homes or sleeping on friends’ couches.
After graduating from high school, he chose to attend the University of Arizona. While working full-time at the post office during his studies, he earned degrees in business and law.
He then continued on to the University of Pennsylvania, taking a course from professor John Fantuzzo that deepened his understanding of education and social-welfare policy. Nowadays he works as a strategy analyst at Opportunity Network in the School District of Philadelphia after serving as Stoneleigh Emerging Leader Fellow at Field Center for Children’s Policy, Practice, and Research – working to increase supports available to youth aging out of foster care at local colleges and universities.
Professional Career
John Morones has had an illustrious career, founding both a nonprofit and creating the first Latino-focused marketing department for a major sports team. Additionally, he knows how to organize spectacular events; one recent boxing card in particular proved popular with local fans.
Morones has a full schedule, yet he still finds time for civic duties such as volunteering as an elected official and serving on multiple boards and commissions. His nonprofit organization Border Angels has been around since 1986 and is renowned for providing life-saving water drops in remote mountain and desert locations.
One of the group’s notable accomplishments is its award-winning ad campaign, which earned recognition from the Advertising Club of San Diego.

Furthermore, UNDOCs manage an onsite clinic offering medical care and other supportive services to undocumented immigrants.

Personal Life

On June 7, 2002, Morones was indicted for possessing methamphetamine with intent to distribute.

Following hearing testimony, however, the judge ruled there was sufficient evidence to uphold Morones’ conviction for implied malice murder which was later upheld by California Supreme Court.
