Thousands of families face an uncertain future in post-flood El Salvador

SACACOYO, El Salvador, 10 November 2011 - When Erick Alberto Montano, 25, recently took his son, Abner, to his grandmother’s house, as he did every Saturday, he never thought it would wind up saving their lives. It had been raining heavily four days straight, and upon returning home, they discovered Abners room had been washed away by a landslide. From one moment to the next, Erick and his family were forced to leave everything behind.
