Placement Sites
The Casa de la Solidaridad is an opportunity for you to immerse yourself in "la realidad" of El Salvador on many levels. Your field placement, however, will be one of the most important parts of your immersion experience.
Currently, the Casa is placing students in the following locations:
After we talk with you about your academic background, personal interests, and professional goals, we will pair you up with a fellow classmate and give you a field placement in a local Salvadoran marginal community. You will work for two full days each week with that community for the entire semester. Through this learning environment, you will become more aware of and sensitive to the realities of those who are struggling to end social injustices while working to promote human dignity. You will become part of the Salvadoran society not as a volunteer, but as a learner.
