2. Youth Mind Fitness Camp Internship
Following the Summer Youth Leadership Camp (Virtual), we have decided to host monthly Youth Mind Fitness sessions so that young people can come together, share their stories, open their hearts, and begin the journey of healing regularly.
The reason to look for facilitators from Korean American students: even though the camp will be held in English, they understand Korean culture, stigma, and culture-based issues.
