Strengthening personal connections with the natural world, community, and oneself
We intentionally use gender-neutral language on this website. The grammar may initially seem a little funky (especially in Spanish), but we do this with respect for those who are typically excluded through language that reinforces gender binaries.
What we do
PUENTES develops and facilitates custom bilingual (Spanish/English) experiential outdoor programs for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC). We center joy, community building, personal growth, connection with Earth, and outdoor skills development.
About

PUENTES was founded in Watsonville, California on unceded Amah Mutsun land, and runs programs on traditional Xolon Salinan, Washoe, Awaswas, Ohlone, Nisenan, Tübatulabal, Chalon, Tamien, and Ramaytush lands.
Please refer to our Give page to see how you can support the Indigenous communities whose lands we occupy to accomplish their goals and missions and uplift their continued presence on these beautiful lands.
