With the hashtag #PorElCuidado (#ForCare) we will take the big step of officially launching our institute. 🚀

We will begin on Monday, November 8, with a Launch Seminar with presentations by our director Claudia Miranda and our alternate director Marcela Tenorio.

The moderators will be Rubén Araneda, representing the people with intellectual disabilities, and María Cristina Rivera, carer of a dependent older person.
