Global Aging Partners (GAP) | Young No More University Based Service Learning Since 2003, JFR has partnered with Portland State University (PSU) to implement an in-country community service program coupled with academic coursework.
Portland State University - Global Aging and Health Program
In 2007, JFR welcomed Pacific University Allied Health Program to its Service Learning Initiative.
Pacific University - Study Abroad in Nicaragua
In 2010, the first group of students from Concordia University will be going to Nicaragua.
Plans are being developed to expand this program to include longer periods of study and support of a minority professional mentoring program. Students in the service learning program have participated in a variety of aging-focused projects in Nicaragua, including: elder home staff training, community organization, clean-up and repair of elder homes, water supply expansion, and therapy programs. They have provided more than 8,000 hours of collaborative community service in Nicaragua and delivered more than 10,000 pounds of healthcare supplies and other goods to the country. |
