ExperienceAdventure!
Our Resilience Retreat is an unforgettable summer camp experience designed especially for transgender and gender-diverse youth ages 8–17. Surrounded by nature and supported by a caring community, campers build confidence, friendships, and lifelong memories in a space where they can truly be themselves.
Join us in beautiful North Carolina from June 21–28, 2026, for a week of adventure, connection, and empowerment under the summer sun!

Make New Friends in the Great Outdoors
At our Resilience Retreat, every day brings new adventures and new friendships. From rock climbing and kayaking to mastering the art of building the perfect campfire, campers get to try exciting activities while discovering strengths they never knew they had.
At Transcending Adolescence, our retreat is a safe, welcoming space where trans and gender-diverse youth can connect in real, meaningful ways. Here, you’re surrounded by people who get it. Sharing stories, laughter, and challenges creates instant understanding and empathy... and friendships that last long after summer ends.

Build Confidence & Connections
We all deserve to be ourselves, especially in the great outdoors! That’s why we host a Resilience Retreat that is specially designed to support TGD youth in building their confidence, strength and resilience. Working in small groups, they’ll learn valuable life skills from outdoor recreation experts, experienced camp counselors and others TGD individuals who are breaking through gender norms.
