Day At A Glance: Power of Hope Camp
If you want to take an active role in creating a positive future and have a great time in the process, then POH camp is the right place for you! Come spend a week with us in a supportive, arts-centered community and see for yourself.
We believe that as a young person, your voice and energy is needed to help build a world that works for everybody. You have important gifts to offer, and at POH camp you’ll discover that you have more skill, talents, and spirit than you ever imagined.
You’ll get to explore your creativity with an amazing team of artists who can show you how to use the arts to unleash your power. You’ll learn from youth and adult activists who are dedicated to making a difference in the world. And best of all, you’ll make friends with like-minded youth from all different cultures and life situations, from around the Pacific Northwest and other parts of the US and Canada.
At POH camp you’ll experience what it’s like to just be yourself and feel supported by a creative community of all kinds of people. We invite you to join us, just as you are, and be willing to surprise yourself.
Consider these quotes about Power of Hope from other teens:
I have been to quite a lot of camps…and this community stood out like a banana in a cherry tree. Never before have I spent a week with kids my age and never once was ridiculed or made fun of. There was so much love.
I loved being able to come into myself and feel truly whole, something I haven’t felt before. The connections that I made here with others transcended daily interactions—and I’ve made friends who I know will be present for the rest of my life.
