Outdoor Outreach participants, staff, alumni, and Board of Directors share the impact our programs had on their lives. The transformative power of the outdoors not only inspired them to dream big and purse new opportunities, but also to provide these outdoor experiences to other youth.
Outdoor Outreach is a unique nonprofit agency with a mission to connect youth to the transformative power of the outdoors. In partnership with ten Title I high schools and various other youth-serving organizations, we use the outdoors to inspire youth to see possibility and opportunity in their lives, and realize the positive attitude and behavioral changes that help them become happy, healthy, and successful adults. Since 2000 we have served over 10,500 youth.
