Our Programs
Girl & Her Backpack helps participants be intentional about the community they are building, recognize their inherent value and strengths, and strengthen their natural leadership skills.
Parents and guardians can enroll their children in one to all programs. We recommend participants attend our community events and at least one camp each year.
Learn.
Girl & Her Backpack school programs inspire confidence and curiosity in girls grades 8-12 through engaging outdoor education. These programs bring nature-based learning into schools and create opportunities for students to connect, grow, and develop leadership skills.
Build.
Girl & Her Backpack Teams offer a chance to connect, explore, and grow together. From February to May, teams meet monthly for hikes and enriching activities like yoga, journaling, and indoor climbing, fostering friendships and a love for nature.
Rise.
Rise is a 3-day, 2-night backpacking adventure in the Uinta and Wasatch Mountains for girls ages 11-17. This program teaches backpacking skills, fosters friendships, and creates space for fun and personal growth in the stunning Utah wilderness.
