Using wilderness and adventure-based experiences as a vehicle to promote self-reflection and community connection, students build a toolkit to face life’s challenges. BaMidbar’s program serves emerging adults who may or may not have a history of mental health challenges, but who are struggling to find their way forward as they transition from adolescence into adulthood.
