Washington Trails Association’s Outdoor Leadership Training program gets school-age youth outside by empowering teachers and youth group facilitators with the skills and resources they need to lead safe and fun outdoor experiences.
WTA focuses recruitment, resources and outreach on communities that have historically faced barriers to outdoor exploration. The priority audience is organizations serving youth who attend schools where 40 percent or more of the students qualify for free or reduced price lunch and/or schools that have a student body with at least 40 percent students of color.
At this free webinar, WTA will cover the program basics so you can learn if it’s right for you. The program covers workshops around hiking, camping, snowshoeing and backpacking.
Joining the program also provides educators and leaders funding assistance that help offset the costs for planning that fun outdoor experience and free gear lending library equipping leaders with their gear needs.
