The Left-Hand Outdoor Challenge (LHOC) aims to inspire youth engagement and connectivity through various challenging experiences to foster outdoor adventure, education, stewardship, and leadership. LHOC is committed to offering an adapted and flexible program that emphasizes service, community, life experiences and inclusion.
