Our Programs Wilderness Series

Wilderness Series

At YIA we believe that getting youth outdoors is important to their growth. As part of our programming, youth will participate in numerous opportunities to get outdoors.

As important as it is to give opportunities to youth to build within their communities and neighborhoods, we also understand that you need to be able to step back and away to better understand the bigger picture and ourselves. Through collaboration with some of our partners, we are able to offer adventure learning & leadership outdoor opportunities, where all youth who participate in YIA are able to get outside safely and grow.  

Some examples of this include:

  • Hiking
  • Camping orientation
  • Canoeing
  • Cross-country skiing
  • Ropes course
