What are Wellness Days?

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 educational workshops as well as different leadership and teambuilding games, advocacy interviews, and other fun activities. Everything is free for attendees including food, shirts, and swag! Community Resources 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 hosting the 4th Annual Wellness Days in the summer of 2024!

Wellness Days will be returning to Pennsylvania State Parks in the summer of 2024, email us at ympa@youthmove.org for more details!
