At Risk

What effect can outdoor activities have on at-risk youths?   Beginning in June 2011, 22 teenage boys at Northwest Passage residential treatment facility for at-risk youths embarked on photographic journeys through rugged backcountry expeditions to Yellowstone, Isle Royale, Rocky Mountain, and Badlands National Parks.  Visitors to Yellowstone National Park can view the inspirational power of the National Parks through the nature photographs taken by the participations on display now in the exhibit:  “In a New Light: At-Risk Youth Find Hope through Nature.”  The free exhibit is on display in the Albright Visitor Center in Mammoth Hot Springs from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm daily through July 30th.
