On September 19, 2017, a powerful 7.1 earthquake shook Mexico for about 20 seconds causing extensive damage in the Mexican states of Puebla, Morelos and Mexico City. The town of San Gregorio Atlapulco was one of the most devastated communities in Mexico. Children in the area were very vulnerable to post-traumatic stress. Community workers use art and poetry to help children cope with the trauma of the earthquake. Using art, the community is able to rebuild and transform spaces so that children are heard.
