Western Kentucky University’s College of Health and Human Services has just finished the acceptance process into the International Multi-disciplinary Public and Clinical Health Team and will send a group of students to Belize in January.

IMPACT is a College of Health and Human Services program that allows students to travel to the community of Gales Point in Belize to provide medical, dental and public health services. During the service learning project, students are immersed in the culture and learn the importance of giving back to their community.
