WUD Alternative Breaks Winter Break 2020 Trip Participant Application
The WUD Alternative Breaks Committee is built on the principle of service-learning.  Students embark on life-changing experiences of teamwork, high-impact education, and powerful volunteerism throughout the United State on our student-planned trips.  The purpose of the Alternative Breaks Committee is to create events and trips centered on issues that students are interested in spreading awareness of.  

This year, the Alternative Breaks Committee has created 3 trips for students to participate in during the 2020  Winter Break. Each trip will have 10 trip participants. Two of these 10 participants are the site leaders. The site leaders are student leaders on the trip who are responsible for coordinating with the community partners, planning travel routes, communicating with the Alternative Breaks leadership team, facilitating reflection throughout the trip, and working with the group to plan free time and meals. General trip participants are responsible for upholding the rules set by the Alternative Breaks Leadership team, working with site leaders to create a safe, respectful, and reflective space throughout the trip, and representing the University of Wisconsin - Madison in communities across the United States.

This Trip Participant Application opens September 11th and closes October 17th 2019 at 11:59pm. If the trips have not been filled the applications will remain open until October 31st or until the trips are full. The Alternative Breaks Leadership Team will select trip participants by October 23rd. An email will be sent out the week of to let you know the decisions.

Please allow 20 minutes to complete this application. If you have any question about the application or are having any technical issues, please email: altbreaks@union.wisc.edu.

I understand that all trips depart from and arrive at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and that I cannot be dropped off or picked up at a different location. *
WUD Alternative Breaks uses UW-Madison or State of Wisconsin Fleet vehicles, typically minivans, on our trips.  They serve as the primary mode of transportation.  In order to use the vehicles, drivers must be authorized by Risk Management.  Are you interested in being authorized to drive a vehicle for the trip? *
Please note: Every trip is required to have a certain number of drivers, so ability and willingness to drive can increase your chance of getting a spot on the trip. All students drivers are covered under university insurance when operating the vehicle for the official business of the trip.
