This hike was initiated 5 years ago by Jodie Olson, a KAD in San Diego, as a way for all KADs and their loved ones to be able to feel connected on the same day, doing something healthy for free, all over the world. Exercise is good for mental health, hiking is deeply rooted in Korean culture and May is both AANHPI month (Asian American Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander) and Mental Health Awareness Month.
Sign up and join us to breathe in some fresh LA air π, be active and connect with other adoptees.
NOTE: Please be sure to stay connected on Partiful so we can communicate any information with you leading up to and on the day of the hike! π«Ά
