Putting a spring break service trip on application

[natalux]

Is there a way to list an alternate spring break service trip (within the US, not international) on my application? The trip revolved around food insecurity and included both direct service (at various sites) as well as discussion-based learning about food insecurity. Should I list this at all, and under what category if so?

Yes, include it

This is a great activity to list! You can put it under non-clinical volunteering.

You may list it. Do not include sleep, personal upkeep, or socialization time in your total. List the types of direct service you performed. I agree with coffee&scrubs that this is Community Service/Volunteer-Not Medical/Clinical
