Sustaining a life of generous service requires spirituality

-Fr. Dean Brackley SJ

Summer Program 2011 - June 21- July 24, 2011

The program gives students and professionals the opportunity to live with and become a part of a family and community in the campos of the Dominican Republic. It focuses on building relationships across cultural, linguistic, and socio-economic barriers as well as creates the opportunity for Dominicans living in rural communities to receive basic health care. While living in the campos for 4 weeks, students and professionals work in a small clinic in the mornings and the afternoons are left to spend time with families or to give "charlas" (educational talks) on techniques to improve the quality of life through preventative health care.
