Get Involved

There are several ways you can be a part of the life changing work of Chicago Adventure Therapy. Volunteer with one of our programs (see below) and get to know our participants. Spend a summer interning with us (see below). Support our work directly through a generous contribution. Join our board. Donate that gear that you no longer use or help us purchase new gear we really need. Attend one of our exciting upcoming fundraising events. Give your used adventure equipment a new home by donating it to us. None of that float your boat? Email us and let us know your idea for partnering with us.

Summer Internships

Are you looking for an internship that combines adventure with a passion for social justice? Join us this summer! Work alongside our team to facilitate adventure therapy programs in activities like climbing, paddling, camping, and biking. Gain hands-on experience in the logistics of these programs, including packing, gear maintenance, menu planning, and more. Connect with our incredible participants and make a meaningful impact. We’re seeking college students who need an internship or practicum to fulfill their graduation requirements. Come make a difference with us!

Other Ideas?

CAT is still a young organization and growing in leaps and bounds! If you have a skill or a talent that you’d like to share and we haven’t asked for it in the above listings, it doesn’t mean we don’t want to hear about it. We can probably use your skill or talent! Contact us to talk more.

To help out with any of these, shoot us an email.
