AB (Alternative Breaks) is a non-profit, volunteer, student-lead organization that promotes community involvement. The University of Maine's Black Bear Chapter of AB focuses on volunteering throughout the United States, with occasional international based trips.
A sorting ceremony takes place at the end of September that places the members into smaller, 12 person groups. These groups each focus on a different social issue, and participate in a number of service learning, fundraising, and bonding activities throughout the year, culminating in a week long service trip during spring break selected by the site leaders.
