What began as a prayer group for worried mothers in Río Grande, Tierra del Fuego, has grown into Santa Mónica, a foundation that walks with young people and families facing addiction. The Sisters Disciples of Jesus, inspired by Saint Monica's perseverance, offer spiritual and therapeutic support—free and the only one of its kind in the region. Through accompaniment and faith, lives are being transformed. One young mother, Maricel, found hope after feeling utterly alone. Today, Santa Mónica is a place where no one has to walk alone.
