“In a very gentle way, I was deeply transformed, because I discovered that the things I didn’t believe were inside me were still there, and were still true.”

“I never imagined I could find myself again in that very place” — says Nayara, recalling that when she arrived at Obras Educativas Padre Giussani, she didn’t even know who she was; she was simply moving forward through life.

“I changed not only physically (I look like a different person), but above all inside myself: the change was even greater. I’m very grateful for the work, to my supervisors, to the colleagues who welcomed me and who help me every day, to the children we accompany, and to everything I’ve truly experienced,” she concludes, with gratitude.
