This is an important program for many reasons… Cuba is so very close to us geographically and we have been estranged from them for so long. It was very clear from the beginning of the trip that we share a great deal more with them than most U.S. citizens think.
Program prepared in collaboration with Common Ground Education & Travel Services, a licensed travel service provider and Amistur, S.A. Havana.
Cuba seems to be the gold standard for how to make resources stretch within a public-health model and I believe a great deal of what I learned can be applied to the community that I serve.
A group of psychologists traveled to Cuba for an eight-day trip to learn about Cuban psychology education and history, and the Cuban health care system, and to attend Hominis 2016, a conference organized by The Cuban Psychology Society.
