Belize
Visiting Belize on a Therapy Adventure service trip will change your life. You will have the unique opportunity to work alongside American clinicians at our clinics in Belize City and Belmopan, and a special needs school. You will get first-hand experience and learn from the people behind all the incredible work being done for the most vulnerable in Belize. See below for pictures of the therapy clinics, the living quarters, our team members, a glimpse of what you can discover in Belize, and more.
We have a limited number of available spots, so don’t waste any time and submit your application today. Early applicants are given preference.
Where You Will Serve
One of our clinics is located in Belmopan, the capital of Belize. This clinic space was generously provided by the University of Belize.
Another clinic space is located in the Marion Jones Sports Complex. This beautiful facility is located in a sought-after location in Belize City near St. John’s College.
Your Living Quarters
You will be staying in Benny’s apartments, a state-of-the-art housing complex complete with freestanding homes and several two-bedroom air-conditioned apartments. Benny’s is an oasis in the heart of Belama, one of Belize City's most desirable neighborhoods. Benny’s is an entirely secure, gated community.
Our senior team who runs our clinics, Asha (OT), Jasmine (ABA), and Debbie (SLP), live in one of these townhouses.
You will stay in fully furnished apartments with a balcony.
After a long day serving the children at the clinic, you can relax with one of your favorite TV shows in bed!
Your Transportation
When you arrive at the airport, and while you are in Belize, transportation will be provided. Our people will welcome you at the airport and our drivers will shuttle you to our therapy clinic spaces.
Jason, or another local driver familiar with the roads and travel in Belize, will ensure that you get safely to and from the clinic.
