Support Alternative Breaks

Alternative Break (AB) programs are collaboratively designed by students and staff to address social issues through education and community service.  AB teams face challenging issues such as discrimination, inadequate housing, hunger, and poverty through engaging volunteerism.  Students emerge from these experiences with new perspective on themselves and the world inspired to engage in ongoing study and service that addresses critical community concerns.
