Our office in Bolivia notifies the community about each of our planned missions and screens patients in advance of our arrival. The experience of solidarity is central to our mission. Together we work with our Bolivian partners learning from each other. Many of our medical team members spend their evenings giving educational seminars for the Bolivian community. On the weekend we may journey to outlying rural areas to explore the beautiful countryside and better understand Bolivian culture and people.
