PARTICIPANTS
The Wilderness Therapy Symposium attracts a wide range of populations including therapists, field guides, rites of passage guides, educational consultants, students, and professors.
Last year, we estimate that 55% of the participants were individuals who own, manage, or work at wilderness programs; 20% work in fields and programs related to Wilderness Therapy such as therapeutic schools, treatment centers, and referral agencies; 10% were students and professors; 5% were therapists and other professionals with practices related to wilderness therapy; 10% were "investigating" career opportunities in the field of Wilderness Therapy. Based on feedback from last year’s event and inquiries about the 7th Annual Symposium, we are anticipating attendance at approximately 250.
