Today in our community service intersession we visited Casa De Amparo. Casa De Amparo takes care of kids (mostly teens) who suffer from abuse. There are also young women who are pregnant and military families who visit once in a while for a family visit. We actually didn't get to visit the kids due to some confidential information but we did visit the grounds and some of the room kids go to for books and "play space". We also visited two of the family visitation rooms where multiple families facing the same problems can talk with each other and learn to solve their problems. Our actual role at the center was to help clean and organize the family visitation rooms. This was a long and exhausting process which took a little under 3 hours.
