🛡️ Protect Your Health. Empower Your Journey.

🌍 As you prepare to serve internationally, one of the most important steps you can take is to protect your health—so you can focus on helping others.

✅ It is required and paramount for your own health, wellbeing, and safety while abroad to check in, well in advance of your chosen departure, with your Primary Care Provider and specialists if applicable. We recommend following the recommendations of your own health care provider(s) based on their review of our host country travel recommendations (for example required and or suggested vaccinations, preventative measures, etc.), and your own country resources and recommendations related to travel to the specific host country (for example required and or suggested vaccinations, preventative measures, etc.), and recommendations made based on your own specific medical history (see additional details below).

We strongly encourage you to schedule a visit with your healthcare provider(s) at least  6 months before your departure and as soon as possible prior to your departure date. Every traveler is unique, and your providers(s) can recommend the right vaccines, preventative measures, and or medications for your personal health needs and destination based on evidenced based practice and country specific resources.

📋 You’ll want to discuss and follow recommendations related to:

• Vaccinations recommended by your host country and by your home country and recommended by your provider(s)
• Preventive medications (e.g., for malaria or traveler’s diarrhea) recommended by your host country and by your home country and recommended by your provider(s)
• Any personal health conditions to consider while traveling and follow recommendations made by your provider(s)
• Other suggestions provided by your provider(s)

👨‍⚕️👩‍⚕️ Your Provider(s) + Our Host Country Recommendations + Your Home Country Recommendations = Your Best Protection

While you can look up in-host country guidelines and your home country guidelines based on you travel plans, your provider(s) can ensure you’re fully protected, you are up to date based on your medical history and itinerary, and you are taking the appropriate medical precautions for your immersion experience.

💡 Plan Ahead. Travel Confidently.

Vaccines often require multiple doses or time to become effective, so don’t delay. Early planning ensures peace of mind and eligibility to participate.

📌 Important Health & Safety Responsibility Notice

As a participant, it is your personal responsibility to ensure that you are up to date on all recommended and required vaccinations and to take appropriate preventive health measures before, during, and after your time abroad.

You are strongly encouraged to consult with your own licensed healthcare provider(s) well in advance of travel. Your provider’s advice should be based on:

• A review of your personal medical history, current health conditions, and individual health risks
   
• Evidence-based medical practice and travel medicine guidelines
   
• Official health recommendations from your home country (e.g., CDC travel guidelines in the U.S.)
   
• Current health and entry requirements of the host country
   

You are responsible for making informed medical decisions that protect your health abroad. This includes considering your provider’s guidance on vaccination, medication, and any other recommended precautions specific to your own medical history and risks, your travel itinerary, and planned activities.

🔹 Please plan to consult your healthcare provider as soon as possible before departure, ideally 6 months prior to departure if possible.

Taking ownership of your health preparation ensures a safe, successful, and transformative experience—for you and for those you serve.
