What began as an impromptu community kitchen meant to help feed survivors in the town of Caguas quickly grew into an island-wide network of mutual aid centers (Centros de Apoyo Mutuo) with the ultimate goal to restore power - both electric and civic - to the people. In the wake of Hurricane Maria, a quiet revolution has been percolating on the island of Puerto Rico.
