Our Programs

 Since 1999, Outdoor Outreach has connected more than 20,000 young people with the transformative power of the outdoors. With every opportunity to hike, bike, kayak, or climb, the youth in our programs gain two things that greatly increase their chances of success:

First, opportunities to share new experiences, explore their world, and discover what they’re capable of. And second, a meaningful connection with a support system of peers and mentors who believe in them and who show them that they matter.
