Annual Youth Leadership Retreat
WHAT IS THE 350NH
YOUTH RETREAT?
THE 350NH ANNUAL YOUTH RETREAT IS A STUDENT-RUN LEADERSHIP AND ORGANIZING RETREAT FOR STUDENTS ACROSS NH!
The 2025 Retreat will be held from July 18th-20th!
Organizing for a better world is challenging in these times, but our Youth Organizing Team is up for the challenge. If you are looking for a way to get more involved in climate justice organizing, want to learn how to turn your frustration into action, or want to build youth power in NH then please join us for our leadership and organizing retreat. There will be training sessions about grassroots organizing, outdoor activities by the lake, team building, and planning sessions to keep building on our campaigns for clean air, clean water, and a healthy environment.
The 350NH Youth Retreat takes place at World Fellowship Center (in Albany, NH)
350NH’s Mission
350NH’s mission is to stop the climate crisis by building grassroots support for a just transition to renewable energy and an end to fossil fuel use and expansion. We know that in order to achieve that goal we MUST listen to the young people who will face the worst of the effects of the climate crisis. Today’s youth will be the first responders to climate disasters, the farmers feeding our world amidst sporadic growing seasons and erratic weather, and the politicians navigating the displacement of millions of people from coastal communities.
By hosting this annual Youth Retreat, 350NH will train more young people in our state to take on leadership positions in our field and give them the tools to build powerful grassroots movements that can move our society towards a renewable energy future.
ON THIS RETREAT, WE WILL:
Connect: bring together young people with diverse backgrounds from around the state to organize solutions to the climate crisis.
Learn: learn about grassroots organizing, climate movement history, climate justice, and campaign strategy.
Play: enjoy hikes, swimming, canoeing, frisbee, and games!
Create Change: learn how to engage in effective advocacy, and use some of our retreat time to take concrete action in the fight for climate justice.
350NH PROVIDES:
Mentorship: 350NH staff members will help students facilitate trainings and guide the weekend retreat. At least two 350NH staff members and World Fellowship Center support staff will be on site.
