Resilience Social Work

Raices y Alas was an amazing healing experience for everyone involved. Thank you to all my supportive team, my carebears, facilitators, community partners and LA COUNTY DMH, Latino UScc for funding it.

I'll keep you posted on our next adventure!😀

I have been full of emotions today as we bring to a close the Raices y Alas Workshops Series.

Tears 😢 gave been flowing in recollection of the journey that this project has been and how myself along with my friends and colleagues have learned and grown alongside our participants. It is beautiful to see the remembrance of ancestral wellness tools as well as the application of them in theur daily life. Them sharing thrur overall well-being gas improved in the past 4 weeks fills my 💛 with joy.

Allow yourself to dream and imagine to create amazing things. This project was an idea that surfaced on my drive to work and i pushed myself to apply and bid with LA County to get it. So allowing myself to use my wings to propell it to fruition made it possible.

I'm grateful to The Wall, las Memorias, HYC, and Long Beach Forward for sharing thrir space and to all my friends who shared the medicine, encouragement and support 💛🫂
