 “My experiences on the Coming of Age Journey have had a more significant impact on my life than anything else I can think of. Those experiences continue to act as a touchstone for me now, 15 years later, and began a deep connection to community and the natural world, as well as fostering self-reflection and awareness of who I am and who I want to be in the world.” Program Participant

Stan's corner

Resources from Journey's Director Emeritus

Dear Stan,  I want to send my 14 year old son to have a formal rite of passage.  He is very focused on his computer.  How can I get him to consider a program that gets him outdoors?  Should I just register him and tell him he is going?– a concerned mom.

Read Stan's response!

Part of our mission at Rite of Passage Journeys is to educate individuals and organizations about the what, why, and how of rites of passage.  Please explore Stan's Corner, a section dedicated to Journeys' Director Emeritus who guided our programs for 25 years, to learn more.
