“When I first got to PC, I had a general idea of how I saw my life being. I quickly realized that I had nothing figured out and that I was going to have to get used to that. PC changes you; it leaves a mark. It takes breaking down that wall of naivety to find that there is a lot more growth to do, but PC is great at making that change feel attainable.”

“It was a great program, one I would definitely want to repeat. You get to experience the city as a resident, rather than a tourist. Lyon is a city with beautiful architecture and delicious gastronomy. The population transmits a sense of elegance and beauty, which enhances their polite, generous personality. For other students planning on going or facing doubts, I highly encourage you to take the opportunity.”

“This trip was entirely focused on service towards others; to make cross-cultural connections, collaborate with Kenyan OT students and clinicians, and to be leaders in service,” said Turner. “We want to help our students become servant leaders with a global perspective. As professionals, we want them to consistently ask themselves, ‘what do I see around me that I can help and serve?’”
