The Uplands Center

The Uplands Center is a non-profit retreat center in Walton NY dedicated to caregivers and social change-makers. We provide an environment for renewal and innovation that empowers all to make the world a better place.

Located 2.5 hours outside NYC on 290 acres of sweeping farm and woodlands in the western Catskills, The Uplands Center hosts retreats for groups seeking renewal, learning, and growth.

The Center provides an amenity-rich setting for innovative program design, brainstorming and co-creation for social service organizations as they develop or refine their mission. The extensive array of restorative care programs and offerings also make the Center an ideal setting for groups whose mission is to serve others, including health care providers, educators, first responders and social service providers.

Whether the focus is caregivers or social changemakers, the Center’s many offerings and serene setting connect guests with the mutually nourishing, growth-promoting power of nature and the value of sustainability.
