– PARENT OF A CITY KIDS ALUM
City Kids Wilderness Project is a nonprofit organization founded on the belief that providing enriching life experiences for DC youth can enhance their lives, the lives of their families and the greater community.
Our program is based around three core principles: long-term youth engagement, outdoor adventure and experiential education programming, and goal setting with a focus on future planning. Youth develop a positive self-identity by overcoming challenges, building strong relationships with peers and adult mentors, and exploring personal possibilities.
