Thanks to the students and staff at Colorado College who went on the service learning trip to India in January 2009.  Many of the photos in this album above are from their trip with Maitri to the Melghat region, which is the same location and partner organization for the new ACM summer program.

Liz Steele I spent the summer working in a village area in the state of Maharashtra. I lived without running water or electricity and it was the most liberating experience of my life. I got to see, firsthand, the complexity of development programs and work beside other dedicated non-governmental organization workers. The ACM provided language and cultural training that was relevant and useful. Spending time in both an urban and rural setting helped me to explore the extreme complexities of Indian society. I have immense respect for all the people I met in conjunction with the ACM Summer Program in India; it was the most empowering experience of my entire life.
