KiDS NEED MoRE Community

Strong camp communities are built on trust, connection, and truly listening to one another.

Join Haydee Munoz as we explore the power of active listening and team-building through the tradition of the Talking Stick. Learn practical ways to strengthen communication, encourage participation, and create spaces where every camper and volunteer feels heard and respected.

Together, we’ll discover how listening can be one of the most powerful tools we bring to camp.

Wednesday, August 12 • 8:00–9:00 PM ET
