For me, the youth organizing work - it was just amazing. It was a really amazing opportunity for me, and I feel like the program really gave me the chance to find myself and discover who I really was and explore who I wanted to be, and who I ultimately needed to be.

Outright is my family, a place to go when I'm low and a net of friends to hold me up. I've learned so much about myself and become more comfortable in who I am.
// Camp Outright Youth
I've never felt so grateful for an organization like Outright Vermont who runs Queer camp so my kid and other queer youth can be themselves - no questions asked & no need to explain themselves (so exhausting). For one week they are safe, surrounded by unconditional love and acceptance.
