Catalyst Alternative Spring Break Trip 2024

Climate Justice & Environmental Conservation in Miami Florida!

Catalyst Miami 2024!

Written By: Hanan Abdi

Communications Intern of the Wesley Center

The applications for the 2024 Catalyst Alternative Spring Break trip are now closed. Stay tuned for updates on the trip! 

Environmentalism and climate change are global topics that impact us in the present and will continue to affect our individual lives and the lives of future generations. During Catalyst 2024, students will learn about the ways in which humans are hurting our planet and how the consequences disproportionately harm impoverished and marginalized communities. They will travel to Miami, Florida and collaborate with local organizations to participate in coastal clean-ups, habitat conservation, and advocating for climate justice.
