TREKKERS TRAINING INSTITUTE
ABOUT OUR TRAININGS
At Trekkers, we believe young people thrive when they’re supported by adults who champion their growth. Our trainings are grounded in social-emotional learning (SEL) theory and backed by over 30 years of proven success. We help youth-serving professionals reimagine their practice to create stronger outcomes for the young people they serve.
Custom-Built Workshops
Let’s work together to design workshops that meet your community’s specific needs. Participants leave with practical tools and small changes that lead to big impact. Here are just a few example topics:
- Building Intentional Relationships
- Embracing a Strengths-Based Approach
- Creating a Community Support Network
- Elevating Youth Voice and Choice
- Designing Intentional Program
- Delivery for Long-term Engagement
Circles of Change Cohort Training
This multi-month, biweekly, live course (virtual or in-person) includes immersion into foundational SEL theory as well as practical applications including:

Participants collaborate across organizations and receive ongoing consultation throughout the course.
