I had the opportunity to work with children in Uganda and relate my personal story of coming to Christ.
Best Aspect
As with a previous Field Period, this work solidified my interest in the social work major. I also gained a better understanding of the differences between people.
I assisted an occupational therapist in an orphanage,worked one-on-one with the children, and participated in play-based therapy. I also assisted in teaching American Sign Language (ASL) to local pediatric teachers.
Best Aspect
I taught ASL to an abandoned, deaf 3-year-old and cared for the children in the hospital.
