A student’s perspective

Leah Nicholls

Leah Nicholls

Student
Bachelor of Social Work

With JCU Social Work, I had the opportunity to travel to Kerala, India, for a student exchange program in 2018. It was a life-changing experience, which created new world views and opinions about working with communities, families and individuals. I made lifelong friends who I still keep in contact with today.
