Review for Operation Understanding DC, Washington, DC, USA
I can not say enough about the greatness of OUDC and its affect on my life. Not only did I come out of the year-long program with life long friends, incredible new skills, and amazing memories, the program also showed me numerous ways that me passions for social justice work can be made into meaningful, fulfilling jobs and a future. I wish that I could find more way to utilize the alumni network, but then again I am only one year out of the program. Already at my university I have hooked up with some other alums and we are forging an African American Jewish Alliance. I cannot wait to start bring some of my OUDC passion and knowledge to my new community! I can actually say facilitating and being a part of meaningful dialogs are some of the happiest moments of my life and I owe my ability to be a part of them to OUDC
