Who We Are
We are a nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing the well being of children in Latin America by supporting neurodevelopment and promoting healthier environments. Our mission focuses on sustainable, locally led initiatives that foster lasting positive change in the lives of children and the environmental health of their communities. In our current project, we are working with physicians and neuroscientists from the University of Miami and Venezuelan doctors from CUMIS to deliver neurological aid to children in La Savana and Caruao, coastal communities near Caracas, Venezuela. This project investigates the impact of early life adversity on neurological development to implement targeted intervention plans that help children thrive.

Our Research
This study aims to examine two low-income communities to evaluate their exposure to adverse life experiences and neurodevelopment. We will use this data to develop a science-based, locally-led humanitarian intervention in these communities that will lead to their sustainable development.
