Local Activity Opportunities
Day-Treats are empowering, single-day or weekend long outdoor sessions created specifically for TGD youth to build strength, resilience, and self-expression—one skill at a time. Each Day-Treat focuses on a different theme, such as self-defense, creative writing, or outdoor survival skills, offering a chance to grow in community without the time commitment of a full retreat. Rooted in care, education, and connection to nature, these experiences are designed to uplift and energize.
