Overview

Mission

Huellas latinas aims to inspire and empower latinx communities to embrace and engage in outdoor recreation, through year-round inclusive and culturally-responsive outdoor recreation programs, to promote well-being, connections to nature, foster and sense of belonging and strengthen community bonds.

What it reported doing in 2025

Camping: invites participants to experience forests and parks in an immersive way, gaining skills to explore nature more deeply. Through challenging hikes and camping trips, participants will learn to enjoy outdoor adventure while gaining knowledge about safety, environmental protection, and the proper use of equipment for multi-day activities. The experience fosters an authentic connection with the environment, encourages responsible exploration, and strengthens a sense of community through shared moments with loved ones.
