In 2024 we accomplished:

  • Serving 75 youth, 5th grade through young adulthood
  • Continuing to prioritize historically marginalized families, in particular LGBTQ+ and BIPOC families
  • Expanding groups in the East Bay, Marin, Davis & online
  • Growing our impact by training new facilitators
  • Giving $40,000 in tuition assistance

Love Your Nature is the lantern in the darkness for so many young people. Partner with us by adding your energy and contributions towards our vision!

Your support makes all the difference!

May we all continue to show up for young people and their future,
Emily, Quetzal & The Love Your Nature Team

"Thank you for the space you create ... the vulnerability, the barriers that are broken down, the love, the laughter, and the fulfillment and pride that is felt." - Teen

"I am blown away by the presence and care of this amazing team of women. Thank you for all you do for me, my daughter, and the world! - Parent

"Ours is not the task of fixing the entire world all at once, but of stretching out to mend the part of the world that is within our reach... One of the most calming and powerful actions you can do to intervene in a stormy world is to stand up and show your soul. Soul on deck shines like gold in dark times. The light of the soul throws sparks, can send up flares, builds signal fires, causes proper matters to catch fire. To display the lantern of soul in shadowy times like these - to be fierce and to show mercy toward others, both, are acts of immense bravery and greatest necessity. Struggling souls catch light from other souls who are fully lit and willing to show it." - Clarissa Pinkola Estes

*We understand gender identity to be fluid and expressed in many ways. Our programs welcome teens along the gender spectrum who are assigned female at birth and/or socialized female. All sexual orientations are welcome and celebrated. Visit our FAQ for more information...
