Evergreen’s youth programs fall into the following categories:

Adventure Camps
Evergreen’s Joy in the Journey Camp (JJ Camp) programs are adventure-based and interactive, providing a safe environment for youth to grow as whole people and make lifetime friendships. During school holidays, we offer a week-long overnight camp experience in Yangqu, giving kids a life-changing experience of adventure activities, zany games, and leadership development year after year. The majority of our campers on any given week have attended previous years, and our greatest joy is to see their growth from visit to visit, as well as the growth in the lives of each college-aged Chinese volunteer who joins the JJ Camp family. Also, the time spent together at camp carries over into the school year when, twice monthly, we invite campers, college-aged volunteers, and their friends to join us for activities in Taiyuan.
