Bennion Center Alternative Spring Break Trips

January 12, 2018Terese Pratt

Your school breaks can change your life and help a community when you spend that time on a transformative Alternative Break trip.

The Alternative Breaks Program engages University of Utah students, faculty and staff in community in volunteerism and experiential learning. Teams of students, along with faculty/staff partners, visit and work in cities throughout the Western United States on a variety of projects to address unmet social and environmental justice needs. “Alt Breaks” collaborate with non-profit organizations to promote lifelong service through service, education, and dialogue.

Spring 2018 programs include opportunities to work on:

Coastal ecosystem restoration in California

Women and poverty in Denver

Animal advocacy in Kanab, Utah

HIV & Aids in Hollywood, California

Hunger and food justice in Seattle

and more!

Applications are now being accepted for Spring 2018 Alternative Spring Break Programs. More information and applications can be found at:
