“Boston University professor Luz Lopez said it pains her to see track marks on her research subjects when she takes students to Puerto Rico to learn how to work with drug users. Still, she said the tough lessons are invaluable experience.

“For me, doing this research is reaching out and offering them hope,” she said.

Lopez leads School of Social Work students through the Puerto Rico Experience Program during three-week summer sessions to pick up techniques the future social workers will be able to use any where. Her goal is for students to see whether ample health care and rehabilitation services are available there.”*
