PUENTES Nature Cohort
The PUENTES Nature Cohort is a bilingual (Spanish and English) outdoor program for Latinx-identifying BIPOC young adults ages 18-25. Join to build community and practice outdoor skills. NO PRIOR EXPERIENCE IS NECESSARY and all food and gear are provided during outings.
Our program is composed of a series of trips: two day outings, two overnight camping trips, and one week-long backpacking trip. Our programs primarily take place in the greater San Francisco Bay Area and Central Coast, though we wander a bit farther for our backpacking trips.
Our cohort program is taking a brief “pause”for the 2025 season.
We will return in 2026!
We are taking time to focus our energy on continuous community building in our local region through public programs and building up our gear library(!) to expand our impact beyond our PUENTES Nature Cohort participants alone.
After multiple successful cohorts, we know this is a program that is worth keeping. It is because of this, that we wish to strengthen our capacity to hold the desires and needs of our communities.
