Welcome! Thank you for your interest in working with us. Our camp is in scenic New Hampshire on 116 acres with a mile of frontage on a beautiful 200-acre lake. Camp Aranu’tiq’s mission is to build confidence, resilience, and community for transgender & non-binary/gender-nonconforming youth and their families through camp experiences.
It is important that all of our staff be able to build authentic relationships with people from diverse backgrounds including, but not limited to: different races, ethnicities, abilities, socioeconomic statuses, sexual orientations, and gender identities and expressions.
