This program was unique because it was an environment I had never experienced before, and I was able to learn so much about the Dominican Republic and create new bonds and friendships with people.

The overall trip itinerary was excellent! Participants loved everything– service work, touring, beach time, reflections.

This trip allowed me to speak more Spanish and build my confidence in my knowledge. It also allowed me to self advocate and advocate for others.
