Programs and Services

Vertical Horizons uses competent, trained peer-mentors to help guide the kids through climbing and other activities throughout each day. By working with the mentors and other kids, your child will create bonds and trust, as well as admiration, for their peers. In each session, your child will be taught skills in climbing, mindfulness,  gratitude,  and more. Our program instills feelings of confidence, determination, grit, awe, and presence in our students. The act of nature- influenced exercise mixed with the creation of bonds between others generate an effective and innovative way to improve emotional health. 


Furthermore, due to the generosity of our community, we are able to run these sessions for free this summer. That means all you have to do to participate is sign up!
