Pathways, the year-round component of the Camp HOPE America program, is dedicated to supporting youth who have experienced trauma. Our primary focus is on providing holistic, hope-centered programming and group mentorship to mitigate the impact of adverse experiences. This year-round initiative nurtures the community formed during the week of overnight camp and empowers participants on their journey towards personal growth. Pathways creates a supportive environment for both youth and their families through engaging events like team-building activities and college tours, aiming to expose participants to new experiences, potential careers, and positive role models. Importantly, participating in Pathways and attending overnight camps are not mutually exclusive, allowing individuals to benefit from both aspects of the program. Our ultimate goal is to foster a safe and caring community, helping youth heal from trauma and envision a brighter future beyond their past experiences.
