The group will volunteer each weekday morning in a local school to resolve a public health challenge in the areas of Nutrition, Sanitation, and Dental Hygiene. In addition to providing educational workshops in the school, the group will experience the tangible accomplishment of a much needed enrichment project such as building wash stations, gardens, painting educational murals, and providing dental supplies and workshops. Global Health programs also include pre and during trip curriculum and workshops that examine the social determinants of health in the community as well as medical professional guest speakers and a tour of healthcare facilities in the community.
