My Experience of a Lifetime at YEA Camp
Youth Empowered Action (YEA) Camp Blog - A Life-Changing Camp for World-Changing Teens!

By Cynthia Sewell My time at YEA Camp was an experience like no other. On the plane ride there, I had no idea what would happen and how I’d feel after the 9 days. I was surprised in the best possible way. There is so much to learn at YEA Camp. I went there with a huge amount of knowledge about animal rights and the environment but not so much about other social justice issues. The discussion-based workshops enabled me to learn from other people who were passionate about those other social justice issues, which broadened my scope of what I can use my newfound activist voice for. No matter how m ..read more

Don’t get us wrong.  We loved Virtual YEA Camp the past 2 years, and so did our campers! But there is nothing like being back at YEA Camp in person! This year we moved to a beautiful new location in western Massachusetts. For the first time ever, we were on a lake with not only swimming but kayaking, which the campers (and staff!) loved. These, plus basketball and Gaga, were some of our campers’ favorite free-time activities. Our campers often tell us that they are surprised how fun YEA Camp is! We aim to show that activism needs to be sustainable. The problems of our world are upsetting ..read more

With so many problems in our world, thankfully there a lot of people who want to take action to make a difference and who care about changing the world. But many people really have no idea how to be an activist or what to do to get started.

While you can’t solve it single-handedly today, thankfully there is a lot each of us can do that all adds up. How to be or get started ..read more

Another Amazing YEA Camp Summer Training Young Activists Online

We’re so proud to share that another amazing summer of YEA Camp is in the (history) books! Given the continued uncertainty and risks of Covid, and how great Virtual YEA Camp was last  year, we felt good about our choice to hold YEA Camp virtually again — and it turned out great! All in all, we held 4 sessions and had almost 100 campers. We had amazing guest speakers and inspiring activities, raised thousands of dollars for great causes, learned so much, strengthened our community, and saw huge growth in our campers. It’s so hard to explain YEA Camp in a blog post. Yet, every year we try ..read more
