Anxiety.”
“I’m so excited,” Ledesma said after she shared the flyer with the family and got back in the car. “My heart is, like, pounding.”“I’m just so happy to be able to see her in person and them see us, that we're real, that we're here to help them,” Ledesma said. “It's just a different — different connection that you make with the families.”
“I think just knowing that there's families we've connected to services that — you know, it's been helping them," Oyarzabal said.
