WELCOME TO YOUTH STANDING STRONG CAMP - STORYTELLING, MENTORING, CONNECTINGÂ
Running this Winter Break
Monday December 28 - Thursday December 31
Registration for Youth Tellers and applications for Mentors and Hosts OPEN now through December 12.
Youth Tellers -Â Kids and teens first grade through seniors in high school. If you have an interest in storytelling or performing, or want to get better at public speaking or organizing your ideas in the form of a story, we are the camp for you! We have diverse and skilled mentors ready to be matched with you; all abilities can be accommodated.
Mentors - Experienced storytellers who have worked with youth. Mentors work in small groups and 1:1 with your student, helping them develop their own strengths and voice. Mentors receive a $100 stipend.
Hosts - Storytellers who want to learn more about mentoring. Hosts run the meetings and the tech, and communicate with families, youth and mentors in their group. Hosts receive a $50 stipend.
How does camp work?
Camp meets in small groups of up to four mentors, four youth tellers, and one host, to gather and learn from each other. Sessions are 90-minutes daily Monday Dec. 28 through Wednesday Dec. 30, including one hour 1:1 mentor to youth, with an all-group celebration on the final day, Thursday, December 31.Â
