YOUTH IMPROVEMENT AFTER OUR PROGRAMS

OUR MISSION

Youth Odyssey is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit on a mission to provide at-risk youth, ages 10-17, with positive youth development through life skills and adventure programming.

Read our history and goals

I have learned to treat others with respect, to communicate better, and to not be afraid to confront my fears.
I have learned patience, leadership, and integrity so we can better ourselves in the future. And that working with a team is better.
One thing I have learned in Youth Odyssey is respect and life goals. I will use what I have learned to go to college.
Instead of being quiet and not participating, I lay down the plan. I start actually talking to people about what we’re doing and my leadership skills have improved a lot.
