The Student Immersion Program is a six-month language and cultural immersion program based in Quetzaltenango, Guatemala. The program combines intensive Spanish instruction, a comprehensive lecture series, socially and culturally relevant volunteer projects, weekly activities, and a trip to El Salvador and Mexico to ensure our participants gain the language capability and cultural competency desperately needed to serve marginalized, Spanish-speaking Latino populations.
The Somos Hermanos Student Immersion Program targets U.S. students pursuing health care professions. The program is designed for students who have completed their undergraduate studies and are taking a year off of school (e.g. deferring acceptance or applying to schools) before they begin medical school or health-related graduate programs.
