Passionate About:

Global Brigades snagged me the middle of my sophomore year. I started mostly out of curiosity, but have discovered a real passion for the work we do. The people in-country and abroad are so devoted to their work and the continual impact of repeated Brigades adding more knowledge and infrastructure to these remote communities has made a real, measurable difference in the lives of the people we meet. I am so excited to have the opportunity to lead the CSB/SJU Brigade this year and aspire to go beyond our past impact to make this Brigade especially outstanding.

Volunteer Activity Message

Global Brigades offers 7-9 day Medical Brigades throughout the year in Honduras, Panama and Nicaragua. The CSB/SJU 2017 Brigade will be serving on a 9 day Brigade. During a Medical Brigade, volunteers have the opportunity to take vitals and patient history in triage, shadow licensed doctors in medical consultations, and assist in a pharmacy under the direction of licensed pharmacists. This year's Brigade will be implementing a new Optometry station where students have the chance to fit patients with glasses. Each of our partner communities receives a brigade approximately twice a year. Between brigades, our in-country team maintains relationships with the communities to provide follow-up and to conduct Community Health Worker (CHW) trainings to empower local leaders to sustain a consistent level of healthcare. Electronic patient records are collected for future visitations and to monitor overall community health trends.
