Our Partners
Tacoma Pierce County YMCA
This partnership with the Liz Rocks Foundation presents a unique and exciting opportunity to promote climbing and outdoor adventure and work to serve more youth in these activities. We’ve got our current strategies (described above) to serve those from low-income, underserved, and/or underrepresented people and communities, but will have Liz Rocks experience and expertise to draw upon as well.
American Alpine Institute
In its early years AAI was best known for its leadership in alpine guiding, but since the early '80's, the Institute's programming has given equal importance to rock, snow, ice, glacier, and high altitude climbing. AAI also offers nationally recognized programs in wilderness and glacier skiing, avalanche hazard assessment, and technical rescue. We offer courses, climbing trips, and expeditions throughout the year in six states and 16 countries.
