Lindsy Samborski, social work student at Avila, helps organize care packages put together by students in a recent Crisis Intervention: The Community course, taught by Lindee Petersen Wilson, LSCSW, Assistant Professor of Social Work at Avila.  Fifteen students in the course assembled over 150 individual care packages to donate to Heart to Heart International.  Care packages include a hand towel, wash cloth, soap, shampoo, toothbrush and paste, and other toiletry items.  In some disaster situations this relief item may be the only possession a person has after a crisis.  The care packages are distributed by the Heart to Heart International organization and because of recent events, the agency was running short.  Students negotiated with the instructor to complete the service project in lieu of a research paper.  See more about this inspiring service project here.
