Zoraima Rosario-Rolón, provider to family, friend, and neighbor caregivers, explores strategies to support these important community members every day.
In this short, documentary-style portrait, we enter the world of Zoraima Rosario-Rolón, a provider who works with family, friend, and neighbor caregivers (FFNs) on a regular basis as an Early Childhood Facilitator and Coach.
