Our Program

The Road Less Traveled summer experience is a true partnership and the result is an extraordinary international collaborative effort and an equally cooperative endeavor for all. We offer an experience where young people engage in a service of presence and active listening in the world. We encourage involvement and cultivate leadership, excellence and professionalism, openness and sensitivity, initiative, communal participation, and social activism.  We hope that somewhere in the variety of summer service learning, language, adventure and leadership programs honed from years of experience to be perfectly suited to teenagers, you will find a program that inspires you to sign up and get out on The Road Less Traveled!
