Can't make it and want to support camp?
The Lions Camps at Wrightwood Village is located just outside of Wrightwood, California in the beautiful Angeles National Forest with elevation providing cooler temperatures during summertime.
Nearby airports include: Ontario (ONT) 54 miles, Burbank (BUR) 90 miles, Los Angeles (LAX) 100 miles.
Wifi and cell service are minimal, providing a lovely opportunity to unplug and connect with your family.
Camp is structured around Community Sourced Programming (CSP), an adaptation of Open Space Technology (OST), which allows both staff and campers, of any age, to make offerings for the day.
Sessions led by our Program Team infuse the community with a rich experience of the values at the core of Family HEART Camp, while sharing the communication skills that help us all realize those values. Session offerings range from more structured teaching of NVC, to games, crafts, and other explorations grounded in NVC, that appeal to a wide range of ages and interests.
The great benefit of Community Sourced Programing is its flexibility to meet the needs of each camp community, recognizing that everyone — children included — are important contributors to the community.
Lodging & Meals
Our camp families come in all shapes and sizes, and have ranged in age from from 3 months to 80 years. Families at camp may span multiple generations or be a single person. What all of our families have in common is curiosity, a willingness to learn, and a longing for more connection and harmony, in their family, their community, and in the world.
Family HEART Camp is a family residential retreat, meaning only staff and registered families participate. Sessions are not open to members of the public who have not pre-registered for camp. We start and end the week together, without visitors, allowing for the creation of a clear community container to better support us in building trust, and a sense of belonging, that campers of all ages can lean into as they learn and practice.
