WHO WE ARE
At City Kids Wilderness Project, our mission is to build resiliency, broaden horizons, cultivate community, and develop skills for success in DC youth. City Kids does this through a long-term, cohort-based model that utilizes both the wilderness and urban environment in and around Washington, D.C. and during the summer at our ranch in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Youth enroll as sixth graders and continue their engagement with City Kids with the same cohort of youth through 12th grade and beyond. Our work is grounded in our Core Values and guided by our DEI statement of beliefs.
The JET (Job Experience Trainee) Program focuses on school year and summer programming for 10th through 12th grade participants– outdoor adventure trips, workshops, leadership and professional development training, community service opportunities, summer internships, and post high school planning support. Themes range from wilderness leadership and youth development, to professional development and career exploration.
