Alaska Youth Leadership Camp

event details

Youth leadership camp for substance use prevention and mental health

Camp OdySEA is a 4-day summer camp experience on a remote island in Southeast Alaska, focused on youth leadership in substance use prevention, mental health, and health equity. Camp will take place on June 11th- 14th, 2026 at Camp Lorraine on Vank Island in Wrangell, Alaska.

  • Immersive island experience in SE Alaska: wilderness, camp life, and movement-based learning—not classroom lectures.
  • Days filled with small-group workshops you shape, guided conversations, outdoor challenges, cultural sharing, and creative sessions that turn ideas into action.
  • Focus on self-discovery, empowerment, and community impact through nature-based leadership activities.
  • Leave inspired with a clear, youth-created plan to bring change home—and memories and skills forged in Alaska’s landscape.
