Review for Co Partners Of Campesinas, Alexandria, VA, USA
Through language learning experiences in Guatemala and professional interactions with the Latino population I developed an interest in Central America and the issues facing people from those countries. Co-partners of Campesinas gave me the opportunity to travel to Central America again and utilize the professional social work skills that I had gained over the years. Prior to the trip we organized information and program delivery with Jim and Archer. As a volunteer we had time to experience El Salvador through short cultural trips, before we started our work in Ilobasco. During the week we worked with the young people I helped conduct vocational assessments, chaperoned trips to visit potential employment locations, and assisted with organization of the program delivery. I was moved by the dedication of the people involved with the organization and feel that the program was a success.
