2026 Spark Change Camp - Camper Registration

Spark Change Camp provides a space for rising 6th to rising 12th-grade girls of color* to find their activist voices so they can advocate for justice in their own communities. Campers will engage with powerful community leaders, participate in activities focused on leadership and community engagement, and apply newly acquired skills to real service-learning projects.

Spark Change Camp will be hosted in-person at Huston-Tillotson University the week of June 22nd - June 25th from 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM every day. As decided by our 5 high school Peer Facilitators, the overall theme for Spark Change Camp is Growth & Harmony. Daily themes that will be explored throughout camp include: Identity, Confidence & Self-Assurance, Relationship Skills and Mental Health.

*Although the overall mission of the Spark Change Project is to amplify the voices of Black and Brown girls this is also a gender diverse event that is open to all girls and non-binary folk.
