IMPACT OF AN ALL-GENDER CABIN INTERVENTION AT A RESIDENTIAL SUMMER CAMP ON SELF-ESTEEM AND PERCEIVED SOCIAL SUPPORT IN LGBTQ+ YOUTH
Full text linkThis study is a program evaluation with a mixed-methods design that evaluated the impact of Camp Tawonga’s All-Gender Cabin Intervention and LGBTQ+ programming showed no statistically significant changes, likely due to small sample size, but descriptive trends indicated improved outcomes for LGBTQ+ youth in All-Gender cabins. Semi-structured interviews with six LGBTQ+ campers revealed increased self-awareness and acceptance, empowerment, self-confidence, and a stronger sense of belonging within the LGBTQ+ community, along with positive interactions with non-LGBTQ+ peers. Notably, the three campers in All-Gender cabins highlighted unique themes of identity affirmation, emotional and behavioral growth, and relief from minority stress. Findings support the value of inclusive cabin options and affirming programming in fostering resilience among LGBTQ+ youth. Implications, limitations, and suggestions for future research are discussed on camper self-esteem and perceived social support. Participants included 184 campers, ages 9–16, who attended summer sessions in 2024. Quantitative pre- and post-camp surveys
