The Cuernavaca Center for Intercultural Dialogue on Development (CCIDD) is a Christian retreat center located in Cuernavaca, Morelos, Mexico. Founded in 1977, CCIDD offers Canadian and American students the opportunity to experience the struggle for justice in Latin America. Over 500 groups and 10,000 students have attended CCIDD since its inception.〔http://www.ccidd.org/aboutus.htm ''Mission of CCIDD''〕 ==A Call to Service== Making the journey to CCIDD requires not only the proper emotional state, but also the proper intentions. In an open letter concerning the value of service, Rachel Naomi Remen reminds us all to reevaluate our personal positions with respect to the dichotomy that inevitably exists between the notions of service and help. In effect, service can only be performed in "a relationship between equals" while help is based on a relationship of inequality, especially since it assumes that one side of the relationship is "stronger" than the other.〔http://www.theinterpretersfriend.com/Terpsnet/11.html ''In the Service of Life''〕 CCIDD therefore does not wish for its students to "help" the local Mexican population; let the tourists do that, it wants its students to "serve" the people. This service can either be direct or indirect. Direct service involves projects like painting schools, composting trash, and building houses. Indirect service includes initiating cross-cultural dialogues, visiting local archaeological sites, and reflecting upon the daily experiences that one undergoes.
