Work Teams
“Acción is happy to once again host work teams starting in 2022 under new COVID-19 protocols, that seek to provide safety for team members and for our Mexican brothers and sisters. All work team members must be fully vaccinated and village activities will be outdoor and masked. Details can be found in our document on COVID-19 Special Protocols that is the last page (Appendix I) of our Team Leader’s Handbook, which has extensive details on everything about work teams.”
If you are a current Work Team leader you can access our Team Information Manager website to update information about your upcoming trip.
Cost
Acción charges a per person fee for a Work Team mission trip. This money is due 2 months before the trip date. It covers:
- All ground transportation in Mexico
- Construction materials
- One hammock per person (which is yours to take home)
- Housing hosts (the Mayan families who give up their homes for Work Teams to stay in)
- Acción staff with you on your trip
- Set-up site visits to prepare for your stay in the village (done by Accion staff before you arrive)
The fee does NOT cover your airfare, food (you will have access to a kitchen and cook your own meals in the village), or any R&R activities such as hotels and entrance fees to Mayan ruins.
