ADC-291 Urban Encounter for the Helping Profession

This course is intended to provide students with an urban, cross-cultural experience as well as exposure to the diversity and universality of human experience and behavior. The experience involves a weekend spent in Chicago touring treatment facilities and cultural sites, completion of pertinent readings prior to the experience, and a final reflection paper. This immersion experience will facilitate a greater understanding of those who are culturally different as well as the complexities associated with racism, poverty, substance dependence, and mental illness. Students will reflect on the impact of this experience in terms of their own personal development, the helping profession, their faith, and sense of life calling.
