Meet Avery! Avery Rognan is a recent SOS graduate and Park City program alumni. Two summers ago, Avery participated in SOS' Career Development Program where she was placed in a summer-long internship with the U.S. Ski & Snowboard Team. After the internship ended, Avery was offered to stay on part-time during the school year, which she accepted. Our Career Program was intentionally developed to create opportunities like these for young people across our communities. It's incredible to see our participants rise to the occasion and grow both personally and professionally. 🎥 : Headlamp Studios

SOS changes young lives, building character and leadership in youth through mentoring outdoors
About us
No matter what social, societal, or economic barriers exist—SOS Outreach believes every child deserves the opportunity to thrive. It starts with skiing or snowboarding, because it’s on the mountain that kids unearth the courage to step outside of their comfort zones, develop new strengths within themselves and cultivate lifelong skills. Since 1993, we’ve been using mentorship and a proven, multi-year curriculum, to empower kids and teenagers to discover their true potential. Mission SOS Outreach changes young lives, builds character and develops leadership in youth who face risks through mentoring outdoors. Core Values SOS Outreach has six core values: courage, discipline, integrity, wisdom, compassion and humility. These values are central to our programs and operation.

Learning about jobs in the ski industry! For most young people in our Career Development program, this is the first job/professional experience that they've ever had. As such, it's our goal to expose participants to as many opportunities as possible. Recently our Colorado cohort visited Vail Resorts HQ to explore the numerous career paths and learn directly from people tenured within the ski industry. These kids love skiing/riding and being able to help them connect their passions to careers is what it's all about. #epicpromise
