About Me

My name is Sophie Swallow and I am Young Adult Service Corp member of the Episcopal Church working in Guatemala City. I've lived in Guatemala on and off for 5 years now, and I couldn't be more excited for this next chapter here.

I work for Guatemala Youth Initiative in sexual and reproductive health. Learn more about it at www.iniciativaguatemala.org
