Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at CLN

We are committed to wholeheartedly embracing campers of all abilities and backgrounds. Inclusion is embedded into who we are—one of our three key values is harmony with each other. Our core summer program welcomes children regardless of race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, ability, or religious beliefs.

Our program is open to any youth who identify as girls, whether cis, trans, or non-binary who want to be part of a community that provides fun and empowering wilderness experiences. Additionally, we understand that historically people of color have not had access to the camp experience or have not felt welcomed in summer camp spaces. We are committed to ensuring that all campers feel the same sense of belonging and support at summer camp, and recognize that working toward an equitable camp experience will be an ongoing process.
