TAKE A HIKE FOUNDATION

about

Our Mission

Take a Hike empowers youth with intentional, continuous clinical counselling, outdoor experiential learning, and community. Our public school district partners provide high quality education, and together, we empower youth with the skills and resilience they need to graduate high school, build healthy relationships, and achieve success – however they define it.

For too many young people, youth is a time of relentless uncertainty, anxiety, and trepidation. This is amplified for vulnerable youth who more than anything need a nurturing, stable, and safe environment where they can unlock their unique gifts and talents and develop the self-confidence and relationship skills that will serve them throughout their lives. 

Yet many don’t find that stability or safety either at home or at school. An education system designed for the majority sometimes leaves the vulnerable behind. 

This is where Take A Hike works…. 

We integrate into young people’s learning environment the clinical therapy supports so critical to their mental health and well-being. We meet them where they are, supporting them to develop and grow, and learning alongside them, constantly evolving the support we offer to best meet the needs of each youth. 

We help youth find their way by immersing them in the classroom of the natusomeral world. Time in nature has a profound restorative, connective and transformative power that serves as the foundation to programming tailored to each individual, their distinct experiences and innate talents.
