About the Camp

What To Expect

A blend of facilitated learning spaces, community-created offerings, playful explorations, and shared gathering spaces that support connection across ages and experiences.

Learning through Facilitated Sessions

Some of the learning sessions will be guided by Manasi, Mika, and the Program Team, offering grounding in the core values and practices of the camp. These may include:

• NVC Sessions for self-empathy, empathy and honest self-expression
• Cultivating emotional literacy and understanding our emotions and needs
• Spaces for empathy and listening, for navigating conflict and repair
• Exploring dialogue and agreement-making
• Connection and collaboration circles
• Cooperative games, embodied, movement-based learning, relational activities
• Community spaces and gatherings

Co-created Sessions and Spaces

Alongside these, campers of all ages and experience levels will be able to offer sessions, games, conversations, creative activities, movement spaces, nature explorations, rituals, skill-shares, connection activities, storytelling or even pausing, resting and integration spaces.

We intend that most spaces in the camp will remain intergenerational and open, allowing children, teens, and adults to participate and explore side by side. Yet, if needed, we will create age- and activity-centric spaces for being heard, expresson, and exploration.

Because the Family Camp is community-centered and relational, some aspects of the experience may evolve organically in response to the needs and energy of the group. That means the camp is shaped not only by the team, but also by you — and the people who gather there.
