Program Activities
Participants take part in field trips to local educational institutions, cultural and historical sites which complement the classroom instruction provided to the student.
Instructors use videos, discussions, cultural awareness activities, and writing assignments to prepare for and help students reflect on the personal, historical, and cultural significance of each event. Field trips to local educational institutions provide a bridge from the program to options for career pathways. Additionally, participants take part in low rope Trainings and team building exercises via Life Management Skills Retreats.
The University of Texas campus also offers a venue to cultural events and academic programs not traditionally available to migrants.
