Since 2009, YEA camp has held week-long overnight sessions
for young social justice advocates. Camps are held in July and August in northern
California, Oregon, and New York. Inspired youth, aged 12–17 years and determined

They learn how to start effective clubs at school, fundraise,
use art and social media for advocacy, and communicate effectively, especially
with those who disagree. Since the camp promotes social justice and
sustainability, only delicious vegan food is served to the campers!

familiar with animal organizations across the country, and even care for once neglected
and abused animals staying at the sanctuary.
