Alternative Spring Break - Civic Engagement Trip
 
 

  • Civic Engagement: "Individual and collective actions designed to identify and address issues of public concern.“
  • Trip for those that are passionate about societal issues.
  • You get to decide on the project and the location (has to be domestic). We can go anywhere in the United States!!!
  • Will require some time commitment.
  • No set price yet, it all comes down to your planning!
  • This is the first year USC’s Volunteer Center has done anything like this.
  • Will be a small trip (about 10 people).
  • Will allow you to develop your organizational and leadership skills through the planning process.

Commitment:

  • Attend planning meetings (Tentative: October 18 & October 30.)
  • Attend a service day in early Spring Semester
  • Attend pre-trip meetings where we will learn more about the issue we are going to work in.
  • Have fun!!
