Episode 12: Sofia Carson, on Empowering Girls and Women in Brazil

This week, we're thrilled to welcome Sofia Carson to the show! Our own Julianne O'Connell had a chance to record this conversion during the actress and UNICEF Supporter's first UNICEF field in Recife Brazil, where she saw UNICEF's girls' empowerment and education programs in action. She talks about standing up against gender-based violence, treatment for kids and families affected by Zika, and the resilience of the many children she met throughout the trip. Check out some of the dance moves Sofia mentions on the show: https://bit.ly/2Xw0S5r Learn how you can get active with UNICEF in your community: www.unicefusa.org/unite SUBSCRIBE iTunes: apple.co/2XIvugy Google Play: bit.ly/2W0lleE Spotify: spoti.fi/2ISIxru Stitcher: bit.ly/2K4ODWr
