This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Outward Bound program in the United States. Outward Bound instructors take people into challenging wilderness settings, which students say helps them realize they can do more than they thought possible. We discuss Outward Bound and programs like it.

Host: Michael Krasny

Guests:

  • Ernesto Pepito, senior youth leadership specialist for the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy.
  • Joshua Brankman, executive director of Outward Bound Bay Area
  • Rue Mapp, founder of Outdoor Afro and program officer at the Stewardship Council
