Black Outside provides culturally relevant outdoor experiences to youth of color across central Texas. We (re)connect youth to the outdoors through school-site programming, overnight summer camps, and weekend overnight summits. We intentionally craft experiences that build off of the powerful history of people of color in the outdoors and deepen the leadership skills of youth.
