The period of early adolescence can be a highly stressful time marked by struggles related to identify formation and self esteem. The normative issues of early adolescence can be intensified for adopted pre-teens and teens who may be questioning their past, wondering who they are, and feeling like they do not truly belong. This week long camp is designed to help early teens build confidence, explore their identity, and improve social skills in order to promote healing and personal growth. Issues around adoption will be normalized and participants will have a chance to share their feelings and concerns with others who are experiencing the same issues. Through a series of interactive, experiential activities, participants will work in partnership with the horses to learn important life lessons and skills. Horseback riding experience is not required. In addition to equine-faciliated learning, music, videos, games, role plays and arts and crafts will be integrated into the camp, ensuring that participants are actively engaged and having fun throughout the day.
