Child Health in the Caribbean

Five Albion College students and two staff members will be visiting health care programs for children in Haiti and the Dominican Republic during spring break. Traveling under the auspices of International Child Care (ICC), a faith-based health and development agency, the team will learn about programs that address tuberculosis, malaria, HIV/AIDS, malnutrition, and severe disabilities in children.  Student participants are Halley Sissom, Nicole Flood, Tony Gorga, Brittany White, and Mary Robey.  Staff are Barry Beilfuss from Campus Safety and Tom Hunsdorfer from the President’s Office.  They will be joined by Mr. Keith Mumma, the ICC US National Director, and Dr. Ray Aller and the Reverend Lynne Austin of California.
