The year-round piece of Camp HOPE is Pathways, a monthly group mentorship program with activities for our participants. Events are held throughout the year and range from team-building activities to family events. Our Pathways events have included community building activities, such as sporting events and arts and crafts projects, and summer camp preparedness events, such as songs and smores, and a session on the principle of “leave no trace” in the outdoors. At each activity, program participants can interact with other children their own age, who have also experienced trauma. They also receive guidance and support from Safelight’s Hope Team, community volunteer mentors and, oftentimes, therapy dogs. Pathways aims to create a safe and nurturing community for not only the youth involved, but also their families.
