In this article we discuss the work of these diverse groups of social movements and organizations, describing their fundamental role in attenuating the impact of the pandemic by providing assistance to economically disenfranchised neighborhoods. The focus of our research is on communities like Barrio Toba, and urban neighborhoods whose lack of infrastructure has made them more prone to health vulnerabilities and downward mobility.
