Vision
Help young adult survivors of severe illness or injury to not only survive but thrive!
Goals and Strategies
Goals are the specifics of what we want to accomplish and strategies are how we plan to accomplish our goals.
- Give participants the ability to move past the fears and physical limitations caused by their illness or injury.
Strategy: Adapt adventure activities and choose appropriate destinations to suit the abilities of the participants. - Develop strong friendships between the participants on trips.
Strategy: Encourage Pre and Post trip communication between participants and facilitators as well as creating a fun, relaxed atmosphere conducive to developing relationships while on the trip. - Enable young adults to apply lessons learned from their illness or injury to other life challenges.
Strategy: Strategically plan adventure activities to create teachable moments and have group discussions/sessions when ever possible to further draw out important life lessons. - Teach participants how to effectively share their story with others.
Strategy: Give participants an extended 'solo' time to reflect on the things they are learning and to write their own story in a clear, concise and engaging way. - Inspire participants to be active with and an advocate for young adult survivors of their particular injury or illness.
Strategy: Be so genuinely interested and involved in the participant's lives that they will want to be that person to other young adults in their situation. Live and act with integrity.
