Gaia Passages centers youth expressing their full selves in multicultural nature-based programs, empowering all to connect deeply with Earth wisdom within an intergenerational community of support and creative play.
Gaia Passages offered Gaia Girls Passages' 12 distinct after-school programs that each ran weekly or bi-weekly for the Fall or Spring session, or for the full school year. Each served between 8 and 15 girls and gender-expansive youth. We also offered 4 summer programs including our Artemis Wilderness Village, a week long Herbal Medicine Day camp and a week long backpacking trip and a week long Seedlings Day Camp. In total we served 180 youth in 2019. The objective of all of these programs is to provide social and emotional learning, nature connection, and wilderness skills to girls and gender expansive youth from 2nd grade through high-school to prepare them to be empowered in their lives now and into the future. In 2019, we focused on putting resources into our core-team and staff development. The organization shifted to a form of dynamic governance which creates less hierarchy throughout the organization, strongly developed our cultural thriving committee dedicated to ensuring that Gaia Passages staff and program spaces are healing spaces for all people, and support the continued training of staff.
