Tye Found Hope Outdoors | Stronger Together at the Y

Y Outdoor Leadership programs help young people build leadership skills, and self-confidence, but most importantly, young people can connect in safe, caring settings and build social-emotional skills and strong friendships with other young people from all walks of life.

“For me, this trip has helped me overcome a lot adversity, from my surgeries and kids judging me. Meeting kids and making new friends, learning new skills, learning new things, developing a new sense of leadership and social skills that I feel like I really needed, it gives you a hope, it gives you a light, it gives you something to know in the end you’ll be a better person. And there’s always something brighter at the end of the road.” - Tye
