Guatemala: Travel and Study of Child Welfare


What Forms do I need for this Program?

What can I expect from the course?
This 3 credit hour graduate and undergraduate course and 30 hour CEU program is designed to familiarize participants with child welfare issues, social services, and indigenous community-development, particularly women cooperatives. The plan is that some time each morning participants will learn Spanish, followed by guided tours of programs. The experience will challenge participants to compare Guatemala with the United States, and understand the strengths and weaknesses of social policies and human services in both countries. The program is an intense small group experience in living, learning, traveling and studying.

How much will the trip cost?
Cost will be approximately $1,700.00 (not including tuition for credit hours or CEUs).
