Camp Igaliq

Each summer youth from the Bering Strait region join together for 5 days to create a bright vision of themselves, their community and their future. Elders and guest presenters share knowledge of land, skills, stories, education, employment, suicide prevention and healthy relationships. Hiking, swimming, canoeing, dancing and healing, Camp Igaliq is an exciting time to share, build, and connect.
