What do we do?

We have been providing development opportunities to youth and adults locally, nationally, and globally for over fifty years. Established in 1941, we have grown to serve people from many cultures and corners of the world. Today we are leaders in experiential learning and are dedicated to providing state-of-the-art educational, recreational and professional programs and service to a wide variety of organizations.

How do we do it?

Act to Learn…Learn to Act: Our educational model. Participation and reflection are natural components of a learning process that leads to growth and change. Experience and reflection integrate learning into life: “What we hear, we forget. What we see, we remember. What we do, we understand.”
