Check out a new program highlight below:
In a world that often does not empower young people, what does it mean for COLAGE to be an organization that “values the voices of youth eight to eighteen as leaders in our community” and strives to create a world that respects and amplifies the voices of people of all ages? This year at Family Week, COLAGE is providing a new workshop that will address this question and provide an opportunity for campers and staff to develop our skills around combating oppression based on age and creating positive, proactive, and inclusive channels for youth to be powerful leaders in our collective communities.
This workshop will be the first part in developing a Youth Advisory Board that will work closely with Robin Marquis, the National Program Director, throughout the year to create, develop, and critique programming that COLAGE provides. The YAB will meet twice during Family Week and is open to anyone ages 8-18 who want to gain skills around program development and have their voices amplified within COLAGE!
