The Salvadoran Civil War claimed the lives of thousands of innocent children, women, and men. Many of these civilians were kidnapped, tortured, and murdered without any official recognition or record, today they are referred to as the “Disappeared”.

To this day, tens of thousands of family members of the Disappeared still do not know what happened to their sons, daughters, mothers, fathers, brothers, and sisters.

Marina was disappeared as a child and Patricia was disappeared and tortured twice during the civil war. Both have family members who were disappeared and have worked for truth and justice since their adolescence.

These events are co-sponsored by

The Share ElSalvador Foundation

and the Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston
