Outfitting the Toyota Sienna as a ski van.

We love skiing as a family, but it can get expensive really quickly. So, we made a ski van to sleep in!

Read our breakdown of how we did it so your family can save on lodging costs and still enjoy this amazing outdoor sport as a family.

Diversity Focused

These are groups specifically focused on getting under-represented groups involved in outdoor sports, including national, local, and worldwide groups. Groups that are focused on a specific region and are family-friendly should also be listed on the local communities section. Groups that are focused on getting kids to play outside in general should be listed in that section and highlighted as a group focusing on diversity and inclusion.

Coalitions that are working to build diversity in the outdoors, where most of the groups on this list were found:

  • Diversify Outdoors: DiversifyOutdoors.com began in January 2018 as a coalition of 29 outdoor digital influencers with a combined reach of over 200k on Instagram alone. In that first month, they launched a digital media campaign to promote #diversifyoutdoors which has now been used over 33k on Instagram. They are small business owners, non-profit directors, activists and thought leaders who are harnessing the power of social networks to create an outdoor diversity, equity and inclusion space online and in communities across the U.S.
  • Melanin Base Camp: Mission: to increase the visibility of outdoorsy black, indigenous, people of color, to increase our representation in the media, advertising and in the stories we tell ourselves about the Outdoors.
