Voyager Youth Program, a non-profit 501(c)3 organization, began in 1997 when a group of concerned local mothers recognized a need for organized activities to keep our youth safe and occupied during the hours school was not in session.

Working in collaboration with Ouray County schools, community leaders and parents, Voyager Youth Program provides the only after-school and holiday enrichment program, as well as a full time youth recreational program during the summer months.

In addition, Voyager Youth Program seeks to educate and promote substance abuse prevention for the youth and families of our community through sponsoring various activities including:

  • ASSETS, a youth designed, youth led annual conference for high school youth
  • NATURAL HIGH, an event featuring celebrities from the fields of sports and entertainment sharing their message that you cannot achieve if you use drugs and alcohol.
  • OURAY COUNTY COMPETITIVE INDOOR ROCK CLIMBING TEAM, comprised of students from Ouray County Schools who compete regionally in this popular sport.
  • Middle and High School programs designed to educate and inspire youth.
