Letter from the Founders

Welcome to True North,

We started as field guides for a well-known therapeutic program nearly a decade ago, and our passion for working with struggling teens in the outdoors was born. Establishing this program is our way of coming home and finding our True North. We are thrilled to be able to introduce our students and their families to the incredible beauty and unique culture of life in the Green Mountains of Vermont. It is our goal to provide an inspiring experience that will be a cornerstone for positive change. Our time in the outdoors has helped to define us as individuals as well as shape our work. True North wilderness program offers a journey of discovery for the whole family, and it is our privilege to be there every step along the way.

We look forward to meeting you, 

Tyler Maves and Madhurii Barefoot
