"Transformation: Self-Empowerment for leaders of today and tomorrow."

Experiential Education is transformative in that it engages people in experiences that inspire appreciation and awareness of ecology and culture in daily living. It creates possibilities and empowers participants to wake up to interdependence of humans and nature. Affirming the gifts of diversity in nature and human capacity to create a shift/expand perspectives and inspire creative approaches to complex challenges facing humanity and the rest of the natural world. Our challenge, to engage and empower ourselves and each other to co-create a more just and compassionate world together.

Transformation is the story of the Presidio. Where once there was an army base brimming with soldiers and military activities there is now a national park staffed with interpretive rangers and educational activities. Where once well-drilled troops defended concrete bunkers with weapons of war, there are now well-used and picturesque hiking trails overlooking the Pacific Ocean and the Golden Gate. Where once there were waste dumps and black topped surfaces there are now restored natural riparian areas and uncovered marshland. Where once there were guarded gates that limited access there are now wide open marked bicycle trails for cyclists, joggers, and people walking their pets. Better yet, there are still more massive plans for transformation in the Presidio’s future. The “Post to Park” vision that began two decades ago is still being shaped. Best yet, we are both witnesses and characters in the current chapters of the Presidio story and the story of transformation. Welcome to the Presidio and welcome to Transformation: Self-Empowerment for Leaders of Today and Tomorrow.
