Identities & Belonging: Building Family Outside Your Family ft. Angelica

Identities & Belonging: Building Family Outside Your Family ft. Angelica

In this episode we sit down with Angelica, who was one of our guests in last week's group discussion. She describes some of the places in her life that make her feel a sense of belonging. The conversation touches on finding family and building family when you are new to a city or space, and Angelica shares beautiful stories about her young adulthood and what Doraville looked like some years ago. She also gives us her best recommendation for Buford Highway and shares a story about a restaurant on the corridor.

Angelica grew up in El Paso, Texas, a border town to Mexico and New Mexico where the mountains serve as a background. Working with the Hispanic community for the last 18 years has been an eye opening as well as challenging and rewarding. She comes from a very close-knit family and has two beautiful daughters who mean the world to her.
