Back_topOrientation:

Upon arrival in Brazil, participants are met at the airport and taken to the home of their host family. They will receive an orientation that will familiarize them with the local area, the Brazilian culture, and their program. For placements of one-month or longer, participants will receive a week of Portuguese language training.

Once the placement begins, participants should receive an additional mini-orientation at the project site that focuses on project opportunities and responsibilities. For participants doing two to three week programs Portuguese instruction may be added on to your program prior to leaving or on-site. For participants doing 1 month programs additional Portuguese instruction may be added as well. It is not necessary that you know any Portuguese prior to participation in this program.

Back_topHousing:

Home stays with Brazilian host families. In more remote placements, alternative accommodations may be provided.

Food: Traditional Brazilian food is included (breakfast and dinner).
