Trip Cost: $1850

About the Trip:

Participants will be supporting 99 Balloons’ Global Partners in Haiti.  In addition to experiencing the story of disability in Haiti, team members will provide special education training for local educators, direct care for kids with disabilities, and therapy training/equipping for parents and workers.  The team will be working at a school that serves over 500 students and recently launched a special education program for kids experiencing disability, as well as a pediatric therapy program and counseling services for children and families.

My Role:

I'm am excited to go to Haiti to serve in whatever capacity is needed. Specifically, I will be working with the Haitian counselor who serves the children at the school on a daily basis. I will use my counseling training and experience to provide her with education, resources, ideas, and support. I love that I will get to provide training and tools for someone who is consistently in the Haitian children's lives to make the biggest long-term impact for them.
