After several months of training in Nov of 2023, I officially swore in as a Peace Corps volunteer. I will be in a small pueblo in the La Guajira region of Colombia for the next two years. Excited for what's to come. Stay tuned for my blog coming! PS: My tacos are a hot commodity

Thank you Gerson Aldair Navidad for speaking at our #UCRetrospective and sharing your story.
“programs for assimilating and reintegrating these children into society are vital, everything relies on this - the experiences you have as a young child and the shape of your future.”

Thank you to @RepSylviaGarcia for speaking at @USCRIdc and @ChildrensVllg's #UCRetrospective event and for your continued support for #UnaccompaniedChildren
“trust me I will be there, fighting tooth and nail for those [protections]”

Today I participated on the Release of the Unaccompanied Children’s Retrospective panel. Here we listened the experiences of what unaccompanied children go through during their journey to the U.S. We must work together to ensure that no child should experience this ever again.

[Andrea R. Flores @Arosaflores]

Today, rather than make progress on addressing regional mass migration, the Biden Administration has resurrected a transit ban that normalizes the white nationalist belief that asylum seekers from certain countries are less deserving of humanitarian protections.

1/ I've spent the last 18 months investigating how our government reached the point of taking children away from their parents as a way to discourage migration to the United States. Here's my story about how and why it happened, and who's responsible.

The Supreme Court has now officially given politicians permission to control what we do with our bodies, deciding that we can no longer be trusted to determine the course for our own lives. But make no mistake—we are a movement that will demand we are treated like equal citizens.
