Rachel Rinehart

Rachel will be traveling to Ethiopia, Rwanda, Kenya, Tanzania, China, Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand, and Laos to experience attitudes and interactions with mental health in different regions of the world. She hopes to better understand traditional practices, cultural norms, and mindsets surrounding mental health to drive her work in health care and evolve her personal outlook on consciousness. With local transportation and rural communities at the forefront of her agenda, Rachel is excited to break away from her comfort zone and immerse herself as much as possible into each new culture.
