About the Summer Day Camps
NVW’s Summer Day Camps provide an enriching summer experience for Taos youth, and they are therapeutic for those who need individual and group counseling.
Everyone can participate in arts and crafts, swimming and other outdoor activities, and special community visits. All youth can take wilderness hikes, practice martial arts at Defendu Academy, volunteer at Not Forgotten Outreach doing gardening and farming, and engage in mindfulness practice.
The summer camp experience helps Taos youth build life skills and take advantage of the rich opportunities in our community.
Here is how you can donate to the Summer Day Camps.
