Triskeles Youth - PA
engage‒grow‒succeed
Young people want to be part of a sustainable world, a healthy world, one that has hope for a long and positive future. Triskeles gives them experiences that help them learn to create a healthy future for themselves and for others.
Our programs offer opportunities for youth to engage in interesting and educational activities from kindergarten through high school. Healthy eating and nutrition, organic gardening, leadership, community service, entrepreneurship, eco-literacy, and mentoring younger children—all these are integral parts of our Pennsylvania programs.
In these programs, youth work beside adults and peers who are committed to creating a world where the Triple Bottom Line values of Prosperity, People, and Planet are the measure of success.
Young people find that adults become sources from which they can 'light their candles' and confirm their ideals. The older generation is also inspired by the energies and idealism of the youth. Both generations grow in their understanding of what solutions are really needed to overcome the many challenges facing us today. Youth who participate in our programs learn hundreds of important lessons which are never taught in any classroom but are necessary experiences to succeed in most walks of life.
