The Directors

Free to be. Free to become.

Diversity and inclusion are core values at MTC. By creating a space that celebrates the individual, in which every individual feels safe, all our campers are free to be their best selves. MTC provides a space for adolescents to tell their own stories, and learn more about who they are and what interests them.
