Youth Camps
Culturally responsive and Trauma-Informed Healing for Native American and BIPOC Youth
Welcome to
Camp Rosey
Camp Rosey is our free-of-charge youth camp established in 2023 that focuses on supporting Native American and BIPOC youth in their healing journeys through grief and loss. We strive to create an environment where love and support are felt from the moment you arrive until the time you leave.
The name "Rosey" holds a special meaning as it honors a beloved relative of the Tahoma Indian Center. Rosey was a radiant soul who brought warmth and joy to everyone she encountered. Her infectious smile, sparkling eyes, and laughter filled every room she entered. She was a loving sister, cousin, auntie, mother, daughter, and friend, embodying the true essence of happiness and youth.
