Alternative Spring Break:

Groups of students explore a particular social issue through community engaged service and learning. This program begins in November and continues to Spring Break, where students will spend that week with their group in a chosen city exploring the topic. This year’s trips have topics that cover refugees, reproductive rights, urban design and community health, impacts of COVID-19 on mental health, gender inequity, racial bias in medicine, and disparities in palliative care. Applications will open by October 1 and be due October 24. Follow ccl.rice.edu/asb for more information!
