Program Reviews:
Kira Maria Collins, Summer 2013 Participant
My favorite part of this program was visiting the different agencies and hearing the great accomplishments they have made in the social services world.

Cynthia Christine Marta, Summer 2013 Participant
We were able to explore a variety of social work topics through site visits as well as a multitude of cultural experiences all at once. I felt like I accomplished so much more than I anticipated from 12 days.

Alexis Nicole Hernandez, Summer 2013 Participant
My favorite part of this program overall was being given the opportunity to work with such a wide group of people. However, going into further detail, we got to visit a facility for people with disabilities and it really opened my eyes up to a new passion I might have. Seeing these people work with the agency program to make their everyday lives easier was amazing. Simple things to me, I realized were not so simple to others, making a bed, putting together a meal, taking a shower, etc. It was interesting to learn and interact with a few of the members who had nothing but smiles on their faces.
