“I learned to make handicrafts through classes which I attended at the CECAP Friends of Santa Cruz Training Center: I signed up for sewing courses. My two daughters and a son-in-law are part of my family. I want for my community to have more jobs for women craft makers. That’s how I view it in the next few years. My handicrafts help to attract tourists who will order and purchase my products”.
