Qué significa proteger la infancia: 

It means taking care of the first stages of a human being’s life, such as providing safety, stability, support, nonviolent communication, and opportunities to grow, among other things. Anything a child experiences will impact their adulthood, and we should all be aware of it.

Recuerdo favorito de la infancia:  

Her favorite childhood memories include spending time with her parents and sisters, traveling with them, and laughing together. She was also blessed to have spent time with her grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins.
