Avalon Marciniak

Dyer, Indiana/USA

Passionate About:

My name is Avalon and I am a graduate student at Governors State University. My field of study is communication disorders. I hope to achieve my desire of becoming a speech-language pathologist. Just as many public health professionals, speech-language pathologists must be knowledgeable when treating culturally and linguistically diverse patients. Travelling the world is one way I can enhance my knowledge of other cultures. As a part of the GSU team, I cannot wait to work with my teammates to provide to the Nicaraguan community; I hope to make a difference in all the people I encounter.

Global Brigades offers 7-9 day Public Health Brigades throughout the year in Honduras, Panama and Nicaragua. On Public Health Brigades, volunteers develop sustainable health solutions and establish a standard of health quality by emphasizing prevention and education. The Public Health Program achieves this goal by implementing in-home infrastructure projects, providing health education, and engaging community members.
