b'Global Outreach ResumesAmy Feurer, PhD, RN, associate dean of academic affairs, took her first Global Outreach trip in 2009 and realized, I cant stop doing this! As the first chair of the Global Outreach committee, formed in 2014, she drove the expansion of the Global Outreach ministry to include international, national and local missions to provide opportunities for all interested students to be involved. To date, these missions have covered places such as the Dominican Republic, Peru, Haiti and Paris, France as well as Luray, Emporia and Grundy, Virginia. Most recently, students and faculty served in Miami, Florida.A FTER TWO YEARS OF BEING PAUSED DUE TO COVID-19, Global Outreach is back up and running within the College. Global Outreach is a mission-based program that strives to bring together students who are passionate about serving people and communities around the world. In addition, Global Outreach not only answers a students call to serve, it also satisfies the course credit for Population and Global Health Practicum or as an Independent Study. At the beginning of the 20212022 academic year, Feurer turned the Global Outreach Committee leadership over to Kathy Faw, MSN, RN. From June 1 through June 8, 2022, seven students and two faculty members, Faw and JeanMarie Digges, MSN, RN participated in a trip to North Miami to serve the Haitian population. This was the first Global Outreach mission the College undertook post COVID-19. The excursion to Miami served as an exploratory trip building partnerships with Sant La Neighborhood Center, HANA (Haitian American Nursing Association) and the Center for Haitian Studies. Digges, who serves as a clinical associate professor, has been involved with the Global Outreach program since joining the College in 2014. She was inspired to get involved after seeing a student presentation on their international mission trip to Haiti. The team presented their experiences and showed pictures of children they had treated. This presentation had a profound effect on Digges. BSMCON Annual Report 2022 | 15'
