ABOUT Jessica Valcin ๐ฌ
I am Haitian, I am 27 years old, I work at Espacio Migrante, where I support the community in activities related to their needs, such as providing information, assistance and contacting them with legal assistance; whose objective is to make migration visible, intercultural promotion and listen to them. Part of my job is to know more about the person or people that make up the migrant community, to have that empathy with their culture and how they are adapting to their receiving country. Becoming a more supportive person, knowing how to listen, serving the community, respecting their culture and their way of being. Contact Jessica at kominote@EspacioMigrante.org.
