Youth MOVE PA started Wellness Days in 2021 with the intention of bringing youth and young adults together by getting outside and participating in a fun-filled day. Wellness Days are hosted in multiple regions throughout the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania where youth, young adults, and support people come to a local or state park to participate in an educational workshop as well as different leadership and teamwork games, advocacy interviews, and activities just for fun. Everything is free for attendees including food, shirts, and swag! Professionals come to talk with attendees about what they do and why young people should be aware of their organization. Everyone in attendance is invited to eat, learn, and socially connect which helps to build trust and remind us all that we are working together to create a sense of recovery and healing in Pennsylvania. It has become the highlight of our summers to host Wellness Days for youth and young adults around the state and we are already looking forward to next year!

Wellness Days is back for the 3rd year in a row!!! These regional retreats will be for Youth and Young Adults between the ages of 16-29 years old and will be held on 4 different dates at separate locations across the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania at NO COST attendees.
