PUENTES Nature Cohort

Applications close February 20, 2024

PUENTES Nature Cohort is a bilingual (Spanish and English) outdoor program for Latinx-identifying BIPOC young adults ages 18-24.

Our program is composed of a series of trips: two day outings, two overnight camping trips, and one week-long backpacking trip. Our programs primarily take place in the greater San Francisco Bay Area and central coast, though we wander a bit farther for our backpacking trips.

Join this upcoming year to build community and practice outdoor skills. NO PRIOR EXPERIENCE IS NECESSARY and all food and gear are provided during outings.
