"The DR ASB works in Bately Libertad, a community of roughly 50 families near Esperanza, Dominican Republic. The ASB seeks to contribute meaningful service to the community and foster cross-cultural relationships through a close personal experience with the Batey. In 2012 the team constructed a home for a Haitian family and in future years the program will expand to include providing sanitary water, helping teach English, and continued work on community-defined construction projects. The educational component of the ASB explores issues of Haitian migrant workers, HIV/AIDS, poverty, marginalization, immigration, healthcare, and development in underserved regions of Latin America. Above all, participants learn to see beyond service as a vehicle for personal ablution and to recognize the humanity of every person in both the ASB team and the Batey community."
