Each day at World Changer Camp centers around 1-2 social-emotional learning skills: empathy, self-calming, emotion regulation, resiliency, bravery, grit, conflict resolution, inclusion, acts of kindness, and how to be a world changer. Even though these topics sound serious, camp activities are lots of fun, super silly, and play-based. The ultimate goal at camp is for your world changer to learn how to be kind and brave and to have so much fun doing so that their face hurts from smiling and laughing so much.

There will be two sessions, one for preschoolers and one for grades K-1.
