Outward Bound California

Outward Bound California (OBCA) is a non-profit adventure-based educational organization with programs that deliver character development, leadership and self-discovery in the wilderness, in cities, and in schools. OBCA operates urban programs through the Bay Area Center, located in San Francisco, CA and extended wilderness courses through a base camp located in the Sierra Nevada, near Yosemite.

In 2012 Outward Bound is celebrating 50 years of dynamic programming in the United States.

Outward Bound California's mission is to help people of all ages and walks of life build the personal strengths needed to succeed in life. OBCA inspires self-discovery and character development and builds self confidence and essential teamwork and leadership skills.
