About
Camp Fire Central Coast of California offers youth programs through Camp Fire Central Coast of California, Inc. The program uses a research-based framework called “The Camp Fire Journey,” which is founded on the pillars of Social Emotional Learning (SEL). It also uses an approach called Thriveology, which includes self-discovery, community connection, and engagement with nature. Camp Fire Central Coast is a 501c3 organization.
The organization’s stated vision is a world where all young people thrive and have equitable opportunities for Thriveology. Its stated promise is that young people want to shape their world, and Camp Fire provides the opportunity to find their spark, lift their voice, and discover who they are. The organization states that in Camp Fire, it begins now and uses the phrase “Light the fire within.” Camp Fire states that it listens, encourages, and provides the opportunity to uncover each young person’s unique interests, and that it helps youth become the exceptional people they are destined to be, buoyant with potential to do anything they dream of doing.
Camp Fire’s statement of inclusion says it believes in the dignity and intrinsic worth of every human being. It states that it welcomes, affirms, and supports young people and adults of all abilities and disabilities, experiences, races, ethnicities, socio-economic backgrounds, sexual orientations, gender identities and expressions, religion and non-religion, citizenship and immigration status, and any other category people use to define themselves or others. It also states that it strives to create safe and inclusive environments that celebrate diversity and foster positive relationships.
One testimonial from Jess states that Camp Fire has helped them connect with nature in ways they never thought possible, taught them lessons they would have never known, and brought them relationships that will last a lifetime, and that “Camp Fire is truly a way of life.” Another testimonial from Rene states that they have learned to keep going and to never give up on their “Spark,” and that they have learned about different types of mindsets and making good choices, which they believe will increase their chances of becoming more successful at finding out what their “Spark” is and how to achieve it.
Camp Fire Central Coast of California lists community partners, including Bahamii bars, which are described as being made with simple ingredients and zero added sugars, and QUICK TECH, described as computer and electronic repair specialists serving San Luis Obispo County.
