Our 2022 Annual Report is here: To Remember.
May 24, 2023
In 2022, our community celebrated the freedom of being and practicing together without the constraints of our pandemic years.
We joyfully returned to a full schedule of teen retreats. We expanded our lineup of free online events, many of them youth-led. We designed custom programs for schools and organizations. We graduated another cohort of internationally accredited mindfulness teachers. And we fulfilled our founding commitment to provide every teen with the scholarships they need to be on retreat.
All of this with so much thanks to our passionate and generous community. We’ve supported each other in countless ways over the past three years to arrive at this point of renewal, where we have the space to remember and to wonder again. Take a look at our 2022 Annual Report.
