Supporting youth that have been historically excluded from outdoor education and leadership opportunities.
The Pinnacle Program provides free tuition for 9 students each year, empowering them to step outside their comfort zone —physically and mentally— and see what they are capable of achieving.

“I feel like I have a voice now...the next step for me is to have my voice heard.”~ Lupita Balbuena Vazquez

Lupita’s journey with Northwest Outward Bound began with our Portland School Programs. Then, in the spring of 2018, Lupita was nominated and awarded a Pinnacle Program scholarship to participate in one of our 7-day wilderness courses, tuition free. After completing her course, Lupita reflected on her experience as giving her the confidence to be herself and to be a leader for others.
