ILAC Center -- my new home!


The first picture is the sign outside the ILAC center gates. The second picture is the bus that picked us up on the first night at the airport! It's ILAC's main bus. ILAC stands for the Institute of Latin American Concern; it's spanish counterpart is the CESI center, Centro de Educacion para la Salud Integral. ILAC was founded in the 1970's by Jesuit priests and is an international, Christian, Ignatian-inspired mission where Dominicans are employed and come in and out throughout the week; it serves the local community in Licey and all of Santiago, and has a clinic to promote preventative health and treat medical needs. It is a collaborative healthcare and educational organization that exists to promote the integral well-being and spiritual health of all its participants.
