I have always been concerned about the situation in my city. Ciudad Juarez is sadly known for a high crime rate and violence related to drug trafficking which creates an atmosphere of insecurity. I wanted to learn more about how I could implement peace in my community, so I applied to participate in a workshop called A Stronger Mexico: Pillars of Positive Peace organized by the Institute for Economics and Peace. I learned that peace starts in small communities and that we cannot think about global peace if we do not work on it from the roots.

After recently celebrating my seven year anniversary at the Random Acts of Kindness Foundation, I reflected back on my initial interview for the job. I remember being asked, "How do you think we can change the world?" Without even thinking about it, I responded, “We have to make kindness the norm, not the exception.”
