Alternative Spring Breaks

Alternative Spring Break (ASB) is a weeklong immersive living and volunteering experience.  Through meaningful action, reflection and education, students engage in direct service that address a critical, social issue such as affordable housing, disaster relief, youth education, and more. Students explore the culture and history of the area, participate in orientation programs, build leadership skills, and develop strong bonds with other team members.

To get the latest updates on the 2013 program, be sure to follow us on facebook and twitter.
