Outward Bound California

Outward Bound is a global leader in outdoor education and social-emotional learning. In California, we focus on access to these experiences through scholarships, gear, training and culturally responsive programs that take students out of their comfort zones, and into iconic outside spaces like Yosemite, Joshua Tree, and Kings Canyon. After the isolation of the last couple of years, students need connection, confidence and joy more than ever before. We are delivering these experiences year-round cementing necessary character traits on one-day ropes courses and overnight backpacking and rock climbing programs. 2/3 of all students we serve receive scholarship support to attend each year as part of our deep commitment to equity and inclusion.
