Older Youth Retreat
The Older Youth Retreat is a week-long experience for youth, between the ages of 16-20, who are currently in, or were formerly in, foster care. The Older Youth Retreat is held at the University of Pittsburgh, Johnstown campus (UPJ) and planned by a steering committee comprised of both youth and staff from across the state, who dedicate their time and effort to select activities, events, and keynote speakers to ensure that a good time is had by all. Youth are encouraged to participate in peer group sessions and structured activities with individuals who share similar experiences in the foster care system. The retreat is a fun, enlightening, and very busy week.
